Escape to the serene remoteness of the Brecon Beacons this autumn for a guided walk that combines dramatic mountain views with a relatively easy route. You will be led by Sarah Price who is a qualified and fully insured Lowland Walk Leader. Sarah, who operates Walk Hay, will ensure that every step of your adventure is safe, enjoyable, and enriching.
Begin with a scenic journey on the Brecon Mountain Railway, traveling through vibrant seasonal landscapes, past glistening reservoirs, and into the tranquil highlands of the Beacons.
From the end of the line, we’ll set off on a 5-mile circular walk along forestry tracks and gentle footpaths nestled in the ley of the mountains above. This route takes you into the secluded Taf Fechan Valley, where you’ll discover the peaceful site of a former upper reservoir and cross a charming footbridge at the stream below. The dramatic scenery of this isolated setting provides plenty of opportunities to stop, soak up the views, and enjoy a packed lunch.
This medium-grade walk is perfect for those who want to explore the rugged beauty of the Beacons without the challenge of steep climbs. We’ll return in time to catch the 3:10 PM train back to the start of the line, finishing back at Pant at 16:10.
