A week in Brecon is nowhere near enough time to explore the many and varied waterfalls in the region. If Wales, and Brecon in particular, has one thing to offer, it would be rain, and the rugged landscape combined with this plentiful source of water offers up a great number of waterfalls both large and small. Here are just a few of the falls that we visited.
Not far north of Pontneddfechan is waterfall country and here are a few of the impressive falls found there
Sgwd Clun-gwyn Isaf (Lower Waterfall of the White Meadow)
Sgwd y Pannwr (Fullers Falls) viewed from below
Sgwd y Pannwr (Fullers Falls) viewed from above
Sgwd yr Eira (Waterfall of The Snow). If you fancy an experience (and getting soaked) you can walk behind these massive and powerful falls – but you will get wet!
Just north of the Talybont reservoir is the Talybont Forest
waterfall in Talybont Forest – Pont Blaen-y-Glyn
another Talybont Forest – Pont Blaen-y-Glyn – waterfall
the large falls at Tallybont Forest – Pont Blaen-y-Glyn
and of course, the tallest South Wales has to offer…
Henrhyd Falls, Brecon – the highest waterfall in South Wales. You can walk behind this impressive waterfall near Coelbren
