Day 4 of the Brecon Beacons Way - Craig-y-Nos to YHA Brecon Beacons
We're now well into the Brecon Beacons Way and this route begins with a walk through the Ogof Ffynnon Ddu National Nature Reserve, designated to protect its limestone pavements, associated flora and caves beneath. Then it heads north to climb up to Fan Llia and follow the crags over to Storey Arms. It then takes the Taff Trail to YHA Brecon Beacons.
Three Cliff Bay & Ilston Cwm from Southgate
This walk is one of the classic routes in the Gower Peninsula offering some wonderful coastal and inland scenery. The highlights are many and varied from Three Cliff Bay to Ilston Cwm. The walk follows a section of the Wales Coast Path.
Pen y Fan
![Pen y Fan Pen y Fan](https://www.visorando.com/images/thumbnail/t-grandiose-visorando-27784.jpg)
A circular hike which allows easy access to Pen y Fan (886 m); the highest peak in the Brecon Beacons and South Wales. A walk through stunning landscapes, surrounded by sheep.
Very busy intinerary in high season.
Selworthy Beacon and North Hill from Bossington
Selworthy Beacon and North Hill are the main objectives of this walk from Bossington, Somerset. The route offers a variety of Exmoor scenery with coastal hills, views of high moors and the interesting village of Selworthy.
Day 5 of the Brecon Beacons Way - YHA Brecon Beacons to YHA Danywenallt
The route continues on the west-to-east Brecon Beacons Way, now over halfway to its final destination at Abergavenny Station. This is possibly the most strenuous day's walking as there are a number of climbs, starting with Corn Du and Pen y Fan. However, on a clear day, the views are spectacular.
The Doone Valley from Malmsmead
Starting from Malmsmead, this walk in the Exmoor National Park includes sections in Devon and Somerset. The main focus of the route is areas associated with the Lorna Doone novels. However expect much more with valley and moorland walking in this excellent Exmoor walk.
Countisbury and Watersmeet from Lynmouth
This Exmoor walk includes coast, valley and high level sections. Starting from Lynmouth, the route climbs to Contisubury before crossing high pastures to descend to Watersmeet. The return leg of the walk follows the River Lyn downstream to the coast.
Watersmeet by Ash Bridge and South Hill Common
![Watersmeet by Ash Bridge and South Hill Common Watersmeet by Ash Bridge and South Hill Common](https://www.visorando.com/images/thumbnail/t-path-overlooking-watersmeet-visorando-154566.jpg)
This short circular walk with steep ascents and descents provides a good way to discover the beautiful river gorge at Watersmeet where Hoar Oak Water meets the East Lyn River. On your way, you will discover a lovely waterfall and viewpoints over the valley.
Day 2 of the Brecon Beacons Way - Carreg Cennen Castle to YHA Llanddeusant
This walk takes us north from Carreg Cennen Castle, into the Black Mountains on the second leg of the Brecon Beacons Way. There are a couple of climbs but nothing too difficult and there's plenty to see along the way.
Hollerday Hill, The Valley of Rocks and South Cleave from Lynton
![Hollerday Hill, The Valley of Rocks and South Cleave from Lynton Hollerday Hill, The Valley of Rocks and South Cleave from Lynton](https://www.visorando.com/images/thumbnail/t-the-valley-of-rocks-from-hollerday-hill-visorando-161086.jpg)
This beautiful circular walk is perfect to discover the Valley of Rocks from several viewpoints. First, you will reach Hollerday Hill viewpoint before you go up to the South Cleave (steep section, avoid during wet conditions!). The views of these famous rocks from the paths which go to Lynton are gorgeous!
Llyn-y-Fan-Fawr, Mynydd Ddu from Llanddeusant
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.
Day 3 of the Brecon Beacons Way - YHA Llanddeusant to Craig-y-Nos
The route leaves Llanddeusant and heads into the Black Mountains on the third leg of the Brecon Beacons Way. It's generally a walk south along ridges and mountain tops to finally drop down to the Craig-y-nos Country Park on the Afon Tawe river.
Day 6 of the Brecon Beacons Way - YHA Danywenallt to YHA Llangattock
The route goes from YHA to YHA but essentially follows the Brecon Beacons Way going west-to-east. This section goes through a Site of Special Scientific Interest as it passes Llangorse Lake (Lyn Syfaddan). Formed in the Ice Age, it is one of the few naturally eutrophic lakes in Wales and is of national if not international importance.
Highest Peaks of the Brecon Beacons
This Powys walk starts from Cwmgwdi and visits Corn Du passing the monument to the Lost Lad before continuing to Pen y Fan, the highest point in the Brecon Beacons National Park. Continuing, the walk then visits the summits of Cribyn and Fan y Big before returning to the start along the western side of Cwm Cynwyn.
Wootton Courtenay and Timberscombe from Dunster

This circular walk with ascends (one pretty steep!) and descents uses a section of Macmillan Way West with beautiful viewpoints from Grabbist and Knowle hills. Then, you will discover quiet villages and paths in Whits Wood before you go back to Dunster.
Holdstone Hill and Heddon's Mouth Cleave
![Holdstone Hill and Heddon's Mouth Cleave Holdstone Hill and Heddon's Mouth Cleave](https://www.visorando.com/images/thumbnail/t-path-overlooking-heddon-valley-visorando-154222.jpg)
This interesting walk with ascents and descents close to Trentishoe is the perfect way to discover gorgeous viewpoints including Holdstone Hill or enjoy beautiful valleys along River Heddon and streams.
The Brecon Beacons Way from Llangadog Station to Abergavenny Station
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.
Day 1 of the Brecon Beacons Way - Llangadog Station to Carreg Cennen Castle
This is a short walk to begin the Brecon Beacons Way, going from west to east. You might need a few hours to get to Llangdog Station at the start of the walk or you might choose to stay in the village before setting out on the trail. Either way, this route is an easy way to break into your stride without any strain or stress.
Weacombe Combe, Bicknoller Post, Kilve & Longstone Hill
This Somerset walk in the Quantock Hills provides some wonderful views of this beautiful part of Britain. The route follows well trodden paths and tracks for most the way. Choose a day with good visibility to make the most of this scenic walk.
Somerset’s Jurrasic Coast : Kilve & East Quantoxhead
![Somerset’s Jurrasic Coast : Kilve & East Quantoxhead Somerset’s Jurrasic Coast : Kilve & East Quantoxhead](https://www.visorando.com/images/thumbnail/t-the-somerset-coast-at-kilve-pill-visorando-109326.jpg)
Along this coast, the dramatic cliffs are layered with blue, yellow and brown lias from the Lower Jurassic period embedded with fossils, particularly ammonites. The beach at Kilve is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Behind the coast, the Quantock Hills rise up at Quantoxhead. Across the Bristol Channel, there are fine views of South Wales, whilst further west along the coast behind Minehead is North Hill and Exmoor National Park.
