Activities
The Brecon Beacons is a Mecca for outdoor activities, whether you are a first time 'have a go' visitor or the hard-core enthusiast!
Rivers and lakes, hills and mountains, forests, rock faces and diverse caving system all offer opportunities to do something in the outdoors. However, it's not all about being 'Captain Active.'

Martin Smith and Hester Rawlins are enthusiastic and passionate people who like nothing better than having the opportunity to show visitors some of the best and lesser known walks in the Brecon Beacons and other parts of Wales.
We have been walking in Wales and overseas for many years and have developed our guided walks to help you enjoy a memorable experience in beautiful scenery.
Choose from adventure walks in remote terrain to an easy short history stroll.
For those who wish to go it alone our familiarisation tour will help you get the best walking from the area. Alternatively our walk booklets and route cards may be ordered from the web site.
We have a wealth of knowledge and experience from our many walking adventures abroad which you can employ to organise your overseas walking trips.
