Walk Sunday 2nd July - Talybont Reservoir Circuit

Walk description:

While this walk does not reach the lofty heights of its more notable neighbours, the height gained is only 146m lower than Pen y Fan, the highest peak in the Brecon Beacons. The walk will take you to a memorial cairn for the crew of a Canadian bomber that crashed on a training flight during World War Two, with the wrecked fuselage still littering the hillside. This walk on a clear day will reward you with exceptional views of 360 degrees.
