Guidebook to 45 graded circular walks in the Brecon Beacons
National Park, perfect for those wishing to discover the diversity
of the region, away from the crowds. The routes range from 4 to
24km and cover the north-eastern, eastern and south-western valleys
and ridges, Fforest Fawr, Waterfall Country, the Black Mountain
(Mynydd Du) and the Black Mountains (y Mynyddoedd Duon). Designed
to include all the interesting facts an expert park ranger would
provide, the guide contains a wealth of information about local
geology, botany, archaeology, history, mythology, industrial
heritage and environmental issues. Clear route description is
illustrated with 1:50,000 OS Landranger mapping, summary statistics
are provided for each walk and handy tables make it easy to compare
routes or choose according to points of interest. A useful
Welsh-English glossary is also included to help you make sense of
local place-names. A remarkably varied landscape, the Brecon
Beacons National Park showcases some of the best scenery in Wales.
The walks take in mountain peaks and ridges, waterfalls, wooded
river gorges and remote upland valleys, with highlights including
Pen y Fan, the highest peak in south Wales, and the spectacular
Sgwd Gwladus (White Lady Falls), Sgwd yr Eira and Sgwd Clun-gwyn
waterfalls. Picturesque market towns on the edges of the park, such
as Llandovery, Brecon, Crickhowell and Abergavenny, are also great
places to explore and ideal bases for a walking holiday.
