This is a short walk to begin the Brecon Beacons Way, going from west to east.

Either way, this route is an easy way to break into your stride without any strain or stress.

Walking The Brecon Beacons Way from Llangadog Station to Abergavenny Station

Association or club
↔182.22 km ↗+6,357 m ↘-6,331 m ◔8 days ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Llangadog (Carmarthenshire)

This is the Beacons Way "the other way" from West to East. The prevailing wind comes from the west, so I prefer to have it at my back than in my face. However, there are a lot of North-South headings along this route and even an occasional westerly path. The scenery is fantastic either looking forward, back or to the side. A route to be enjoyed either way.

Walking Day 3 of the Brecon Beacons Way - YHA Llanddeusant to Craig-y-Nos

↔16.03 km ↗+675 m ↘-741 m ◔6h 30 ▲Moderate

Walker
↔17.99 km ↗+652 m ↘-685 m ◔7h 00 ▲Difficult
⚑Departure from Llanddeusant (Carmarthenshire)

This is a brilliant linear trail in the Brecon Beacons National Park, incorporating many good viewpoints and one extra-special one. It begins in Carmarthenshire near the village of Llandeusant and ends in Powys in the Glyntawe valley, crossing a mountain ridge that beats Pen-y-Fan in my view, but because it's less accessible is less well-known.
