Whether you’re looking for an action-packed escapade or peace and tranquillity, the Brecon Beacons is an enchanting place to visit. A vast, mountainous region of South Wales, it is dominated by the national park of the same name as well as misty mountains, deep, wooded valleys and scattered with attractive market towns and villages. For decades, this unspoilt region has been a magnet for walkers, many of whom come to conquer Pen Y Fan, South Wales’ highest peak, or some of the 1232 miles of public trails or hill walks, which offer spectacular views across the Welsh countryside.
One the biggest draws to the Brecon Beacons is the fact that it is one of few places in the world to have been granted Dark Sky Reserve status. With the quality of the night sky this outstanding due to careful preservation and reduced light pollution, stargazers can delight in the full splendour of open night sky. But if something a little more fast-paced is for you, why not bring a mountain bike and hurtle down some of the available trails?
