SEE & DO

THINGS TO DO

Wildlife

An incredible variety of birds, animals, fungi and plants make our national park their home. To name but a few: otters, great crested newts, marsh fritillary butterflies, bats and reed warblers. 

Out-Door Activities

The Brecon Beacons national park is a fantastic place to enjoy the great outdoors with friends and family alike. Besides the obvious hill walking, cycling, mountain biking, horse riding, a whole new world waits to be explored beneath the surface. The Dan-Yr_Ogof caves are a stunning introduction to the underground world of caves and mines. The Big Pit museum is a great way to come to terms with the daily life of a welsh miner. 

Cultural Sites

The town of Brecon is home to several sites of cultural importance for example, the Regimental Museum of the Royal Welsh, which commemorates the South Wales Borderers Regiment, after which our own beloved Borderers is named; Brecon Cathedral, which started life in 1093 and has interesting links to the battle of Agincourt. The National Park contains traces of prehistoric people, Roman forts, what is considered to be the oldest church in Wales- St Catwg's, Llangattock, founded in the 6th century and ruins of Norman castles, the best known of which is possibly Carreg Cennen.

The Old Market

Brecon started life as an important market town, so we cannot ignore the market hall which used to be the center of  the Brecon County Show and now among other things, hosts the Saturday Farmer's market and monthly Brecon Craft Markets.

Festivals

Our annual festivals celebrate our very best walking, food, drink, arts, music and entertainment the National Park has to offer. Some of the popular festivals are:  Hay Festival of Literature and the Arts, Hay-on-Wye Summer Food Festival and the Brecon Jazz Festival. We like nothing better than a good get-together, and all are welcome. Come and join us!
