The Brecon Beacons Eight Waterfalls!

It's just you and us, a day chasing waterfalls for you and your small group

Join a local guide on a simply amazing circular guided hiking trip in the Waterfalls area of the Brecon Beacons National Park. See the six main waterfalls of the national park as well as some smaller falls and cascades, and admire the scenic valleys and the forest landscapes.

We have been delivering hiking packages at this location for over thirty years. Our knowledge of the area, its industrial heritage and its natural environments will be ours to share with you as you take in the best valley walks in Brecon Beacons National Park!

The Brecon Beacons Waterfall Walk

Meet your guide in a fine bistro café in the village of Pontneddfechan. Perhaps you will choose to have breakfast here? We will then visit each waterfall as you learn about the local area from your guide. You'll gain 400m of height on the 15km hike, which is over often rough, muddy and broken ground. For our hiking troubles, we get amazing scenic views of the park and wonderful memories of sparkling waterfalls. We strongly recommend sturdy hiking boots or shoes for this day-long hike.

Immerse yourself in the landscape as you get the chance to walk behind some of the best waterfalls of Wales. Perhaps you will take an invigorating swim in the final pool to finish off the tour!

With the Brecon Beacons waterfall walking trails being popular, the paths can become very crowded indeed. However, the path we will take for most of the day only ever has a handful of walkers, and midweek we'll have much of the hike to ourselves!

The hike will be delivered by a fully qualified mountain leader who will know a great deal about both the waterfalls area and the Brecon Beacons National Park, and of course the mountains of Wales in general. They will describe what you are seeing and tell you a few tall tales along the way...

Brecon Beacons Guided Hike Information

During the months of May to September, there is a café halfway round, but do not depend on this for sustenance unless advised by us to do so. It's a pop-up and so is often closed due to weather conditions, so we always advise taking a good packed lunch along with a flask of something warm.

Know before you go:

  • We may be able to provide transport from Cardiff or some other South Wales locations. Please enquire about options and costs

  • This tour will take place rain or shine

  • You will climb 400m, but this is gently done

  • Andy may bring his dog with him. Britain is generally known as a nation of dog lovers, you might meet owners walking on and off lead dogs in the countryside.

  • Although most levels of fitness can be accommodated, please be sensible when booking and know your own ability
