  • TerrainThere is one significant downhill / uphill climb near the beginning of the walk and a stick is recommended, particularly if there has been recent rain resulting in surface mud.

This is moderately difficult walk of 5-6 miles, centred around the historic castle of Carreg Cennen and is situated in the

Brecon Beacons National Park - now Bannau Brycheiniog.

Along the way we take in lovely views of the surrounding Carmarthenshire countryside, the Cennen and Loughor rivers and the imposing castle

from all perspectives atop its outcrop of rock.

There is one significant downhill / uphill climb near the beginning of the walk and a stick is recommended, particularly

if there has been recent rain resulting in surface mud.

There is a good cafe / tea shop by the castle / car park, so there is an option to visit that for lunch, or scrummy cake at the end of the walk, if you wish.

Alternatively, you can of course bring your own packed lunch. The castle is privately owned, so there is an entrance charge to explore it up close.

Please note that the only toilets available on this walk are the ones in the tea shop.
