I am delighted to announce that I will be running a plant-based hiking retreat in the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog) National Park in South Wales. As always, this will be a truly special, and uplifting event.
The area is full of breathtaking scenery, enchanted woodlands, magical waterfalls, myths and legends.
We will be staying in a luxurious retreat house, with stunning views of Pen Y Fan and the Black Mountains.
Breathtaking Hiking
Enchanting Waterfalls & Woodlands
We will immerse oursleves enchanted woodlands, disccovering several beautiful waterfalls throughout the day. A full nature experience, a little foraging, mindfulness in nature, whilst connecting at a deep level with our precious Mother Earth. For the brave amongst us, there’ll even be the opportunity for a dip and to walk behind at least one of the waterfalls!
I’ll decide on the best waterfalls hike for the group, depending on conditions and our group.
Magical Lakes & Mountain Hike
A slightly strenous, yet incredibly rewarding hike amidst the Lyn Y Fan Fach area of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
There’ll be a couple of very steep inclines as we climb the mountain. We’ll take it easy, in a mindful way. We may even sing earthy songs to propel us up the hill!
We’ll enjoy two magical mountain lakes, stunning views, a magical waterfall, ridge walk. This is all about letting the world below melt away for a while and becoming attuned to the precious gifts of Mother Earth.
Delicious Plant-Based Cuisine
Over the course of the retreat you’ll enjoy the most delicious, filling and inspiring plant-based meals. Think super hearty roast evening meals, superfood sweet treats, vibrant salads, delectable desserts and lunchboxes to delight your senses.

Your Retreat Guide
Mountain Leader Trained
My work is all about heart-centred living. I spend most of my time in immersed in nature. In the wild, amidst waterfalls, woodlands, coastal paths, hills and mountains. It brings me a deep sense of fulfillment to bring others hiking the great outdoors.
I feel that hiking can provide a profound connection with Mother Earth, whilst allowing us to be more true to ourselves and healing the soul.
Also a professional retreat chef, serving delectable food, always made with love. I’ve been fully plant-based since 1995, age of 20. Having written 4 recipe books, and working internationally as a retreat chef you can be sure that every morsel of food is delicious.
I’ve spent most of my adult life in the retreat world running retreats, teaching on retreats, organising retreats and of course, working as a plant-based chef on retreats.
I feel an incredible depth of compassion for all sentient life. I follow my heart, embracing what stirs my soul, trusting that within my perfect imperfections I am doing the best I can. My purpose here (like many of us) is to ‘be the change’ to keep unfolding, learning, and returning to love. I trust that it might help others find ever deeper levels of kindness, compassion, interconnectivity, and healthier ways of being.
Anastasia will be joined by an assistant for this retreat (details later).
