The beast is back with a vengeance - a mighty journey through the Central Beacons to welcome in the spring walking season. The gauntlet is laid - dare you take the final and greatest Loosener challenge?

General Notes
Conditions this time of year vary greatly - highly weather dependent - it's your responsibility to bring the right kit for the conditions. Places will need to be booked on this walk. Generally fairly good paths, but some rough terrain mixed in and there will be night walking. If you are not well-known to the walk leader, please understand that for safety reasons you will be asked a number of questions about your ability to complete the walk. 6,500 feet, graded as very strenuous
