We are the Ramblers group for eastern Carmarthenshire. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A chance to walk in the vicinity of the Central Beacons, without too much of a climb. Starting from Talybont on Usk, we briefly find the Taff Trail before crossing the Caerfanell river by footbridge turning on to the Usk Valley Walk. A moderate ascent through open fields treats us to views of the Usk Valley, then through woodlands on towards the charming village of Pencelli. Descending to the towpath alongside the Monmouthshire & Brecon canal returns us to Talybont.
Link below is proposed route, overlayed on OS Maps.

Llandeilo rail station car park
We will group here for 10:30 before car sharing in convoy to Talybont (roadside parking), to start walking at 11am. Layby on A40, approx. 6 miles past Sennybridge if coming from Llandovery, marked by brown picnic site/toilet sign to left. Just beyond 400yds is 50mph speed restriction and sign announcing Llanspyddid, so you've overshot!
