This route is for those who would like to get into the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park, but it starts from possibly the most famous of South Wales’ former mining towns, ending in the picturesque rural town of Brecon.
The contrasts don’t just stop there. The route utilises many path types, from old railway line converted to a dust cycle path, to forest roads, undulating forest paths, minor roads and canal towpath. There are conifer and deciduous woodland, open heath-land and agricultural hedge-lined fields.
Very few routes can offer such a wide range of scenery types and points of interest.
Due to the range of path surface types, a road °Ä²ÊÂÛ̳ is probably not suitable.
