Overview

From the car park we follow the lanes onto the woodland trail, leading down towards the river. We stop at the witches pool for a coffee break. We take a steep climb up through the woods until we reach the lane again. We take a slight uphill climb through farmland, crossing several fields, gates and stiles. We follow some tracks and lanes before again crossing farmland and returning to the village of Talgarth.
