Brecon Beacons Walks

The Brecon Beacons National Park offers a great range of walks ranging from the high peak wilderness of Mynydd Ddu in the west, through the high peaks of the central Beacons to the slightly more gentle Black Mountains in the east. In between, there are beautiful valleys, lakes, waterfalls and the canal.
