Wild Camping IN the Upper Neuadd Reservoir | The Promised Land!

We took a wild camping trip to the Upper Neuadd Reservoir. We found the promised land in the form of perfectly green flat grass surrounded by pine trees overlooking Pen y Fan! A covid free location being as far away from other people as you can get how is there any risk of catching coronavirus here?
This reservoir has now been drained and is an amazing spot below Pen-y-Fan which is the biggest mountain in South Wales. We used our Robens and OneTigris tents and enjoyed a bit of wild time camping out in nature. Unfortunately this is a very popular spot and we had to share it with a few other groups of campers. We were all far enough away from each other to have plenty of our own space. We left the area cleaner than when we got there by taking away other scruffy people’s rubbish as well as our own.

Can you get any more socially distanced than a wild camping trip?
