The Brecon Beacons National Park
Pen-Y-Fan is located in here and at an altitude of 886metres, is the highest summit in South Wales. We offer the chance to walk to this summit and others in the range and although the Beacons give a wonderful the impression of remoteness, they are in fact, easily accessible from Cardiff and the other urban conurbations in S Wales. The terrain is varied, from the high summits or ‘Fans’ and long ridges, to lovely river valleys and one of our classic walks in this area is our ‘waterfall’ walk. The fantastic walks we lead are suitable for all abilities and follow the beautiful Hepste and Mellte rivers. There are tremendous views of the various waterfalls, including the most famous; Sgwd Y Eira, in English, the ‘Waterfall of Snow’ which you can actually walk behind its wall of water. Be prepared to get a little damp though !!!

With its varied landscapes, stunning beaches and diverse flora and fauna, it certainly deserves this status.

The Wye Valley
This wonderful, wooded valley that forms the border between England and Wales is excellent walking territory with the river Wye flowing through its deep wooded, limestone gorges and offers the walker a wealth of interest and variety from spectacular viewpoints overlooking the river to quiet wooded trails. We’ll walk some of the lesser know trails to beauty spots, discovering evidence of the rich cultural and industrial heritage along the way. Located close to Newport & Cardiff, its ideal for our one day walks or if time allows, why not spend a couple of days or a weekend with us discovering this magical area.
