Location
Built astride the River Irfon, Llanwrtyd Wells is surrounded by mountains, with the Cambrian mountains to the North and the Epynt and Brecon Beacons to the South. There are shady forests, beautiful valleys with crystal clear streams and rugged, open moorland.
Wherever you go you are surrounded by truly
magnificent scenery in this unspoilt countryside.
Wildlife and flora are abundant here. There are
red kites soaring high and, in some places, the
native red squirrel.
There are miles of footpaths, bridle ways and
forest trails as well as quiet roads.
The air is pure, there is no light pollution, the nearest cities are over 40 miles away, and all your needs are catered for with friendly local shops, award winning restaurants and public houses serving real ale. Bikes are available for hire from greendragonactivities in Llanwrtyd Wells.
There is plenty to enjoy here and many interesting places to visit not too far away. From little market towns to castles, gardens, show caves, mountain railways, a woollen mill, even a gold mine!
Llanwrtyd Wells Riding & Trekking is based in Llanwrtyd Wells, which is also home to a number of Green Events, some unique like the annual Man v Horse Marathon.
It is a popular centre for walking holidays and mountain biking and was the birthplace of pony trekking more than 50 years ago.
