Overview

From the car park in Talgarth we take a path out of the village. We cross stiles, streams and fields, taking in countryside views until we reach the gliding club, where we stop to have a short rest or tea/coffee break. Then we follow a quiet lane and climb up towards Castell Dhinas, where we stop for lunch and admire the views. We cross several fields,some with live stock, where dogs must be kept on leads. There are a number of stiles and gates along the route back to Talgarth.
