Mid-Wales Discovery Tour
The Brecon Beacons National Park
The Brecon Beacons National Park spans 519 square miles of beautiful mid-Wales contryside and contains some of the most spectacular and diverse landscapes in Europe.The landscape is scattered with prehistoric monuments, Roman remains and medieval castles, spectacular waterfalls, caves and wooded gorges, along with distinctive upland formations.
The drive provides stunning views of the Beacons, including Pen-y-Fan,the highest mountain in South Wales, with its distinctive red table top summit standing at 886 metres.
Rhaeadr Gwy
The oldest town in Mid Wales, Rhayader - 'The Waterfall on the Wye', is situated at a natural crossroads between east and west, north and south Wales. Rhayader has for centuries offered a welcome for travellers: from the Romans who had a stopover camp in the Elan Valley, Monks journeying between the Abbeys of Strata Florida and Abbeycwmhir, and Drovers taking their livestock to far off markets.
We visit Gigrin Farm - The Official Red Kite Feeding Station.
'Surely the largest, most fantastic bird table in the world' BBC Wildlife Magazine
In the 1930s the number of red kites were down to just a couple of breeding pairs. But through dedicated conservation work they have staged an impressive recovery.
Hay-on-Wye
We continue to Hay-on-Wye, the 'Town Of Books’, with its maze of narrow ancient streets, housing over 35 bookshops with over a million books for sale - a mecca for second-hand book and antiquarian book lovers!
Hay is located on the northernmost point of the Brecon Beacons National Park and lies on the Welsh border in the county of Powys.
This year's Guardian Hay Festival of Literature runs from the 21st-31st May.
'Hay Festival, a gathering in the staggering beauty of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Writers, comedians and musicians that have the capacity to change our lives, to share new visions of the world, and to do that incredibly sexy thing – to renew our sense of wonder.' Hay Festival Homepage
