Drive an hour north into Bannau Brycheiniog (the Brecon Beacons) and climb Pen y Fan, the highest mountain in southern Britain, along the ridge from Corn Du.
Why it's a good date: A real achievement to share, with huge views from the top. It gets busy, so start early, and take layers and waterproofs: the weather turns fast up there.
