Hikers from different households in England travelled more than 75 miles in a minibus together to climb a Welsh mountain in defiance of coronavirus restrictions. The hikers' minibus was one of more than 300 vehicles parked at the foot of Pen-Y-Fan mountain in the Brecon Beacons, which had received a dusting of snow. An intensive care doctor has hit out at crowds of people visiting the Brecon Beacons despite Wales' nationwide lockdown. The rules state that people must not visit other households, or meet other people they do not live with. Inspector Andrew Williams said: 'We are carrying out high-visibility patrols at Pen y Fan and engaging with people to remind them of their responsibilities to adhere to Welsh Government lockdown restrictions.
