Book Description
The Brecon Beacons National Park has a considerable advantage for the average walker. Short, gentle, safe circular walks are numerous in this area. These vary greatly in character from low-level valley walks, including woodland and waterfalls, to combined valley and ridge walks. Relatively short distances need to be travelled by car as the walking areas are directly linked by roads. These factors make this an ideal area for individuals or families of any walking ability. The large number and wide choice of routes means that a walk can be selected to suit the weather and a wide variety of abilities and interests. The book describes 33 walks in detail with a commentary on every aspect of things seen along the way, so that in addition to its recreational role it has a fascinating educational role as well. The Brecon Beacons National Park has excellent road communication with south Wales, the Midlands and the south-east of England. All the walks described in this guidebook are covered by the Brecon Beacons National Park Central Area Outdoor Leisure Map 11. Brecon Beacons wish to know more of the countryside they come to enjoy and explore. One solution is for them to follow one of the many guided walks organised by the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority. This guidebook has the added advantage of giving information on all aspects of the countryside, as though the walker were accompanied by several experts at the same time.
