OS Outstanding Circular Walks - Pathfinder Guide - Brecon Beacons

Ordnance Survey Brecon Beacons - OS Pathfinder Guide 18

Outstanding Circular Walks - 1:25,000 scale

165 miles of fabulous walking in Brecon Beacons from the watery peacefulness of Llangors Lake to the mountainous challenge of Pen y Fan.

Explore 28 beautiful walks across Brecon Beacons with the OS Pathfinder Guidebooks, graded by length and ranging from 3 ½ to 9 miles.

The Brecon Beacons National Park contains four separate mountain ranges including the Black Mountains and the Beacons themselves. Most of the area is underlain by old red sandstone, unlike the more rugged mountains of North Wales. Several walks explore this terrain of smooth, sweeping grassy uplands and wide, open vistas, including the Brecon Beacons Horseshoe.

The routes range from extended strolls to longer hikes, something for all levels! Each walk includes a detailed description, an OS map, GPS waypoints, and notes of key features and things to see.

This is one of a series of books with great walking routes covering the most popular and scenic areas of Britain.
