Guidelines:
The Brecon Beacons is the major centre for walking
in South Wales. The remoteness of the Carmarthenshire Fans, the "wild west", the
long ridges of the Black Mountains and the sheer splendour of the Brecon Beacons Central
Massif make this a popular choice with walkers. Offa's Dyke long distance runs along the
far eastern boundary of the National Park and the Taff
Trail long distance footpath
encircles the central area. In addition there are 1250 miles of public footpaths.
Walking opportunities include canal towpaths, gorge walking, challenging high ridges, and
waterfall country. 
The Brecon Beacons
National Park has a guided walks programme and in addition there are many
ramblers groups which frequently include walks in the National Park in their
programme.
