The wide open spaces of the Brecon Beacons National Park cover some 519 square miles (1, 344 square kilometres). Ancient red sandstone has weathered to create a succession of crests & valleys that give the highest peaks in south Wales, together with natural as well as man-made lakes, while in the limestone country in the south are spectacular waterfalls, caves & wooded gorges. The Park`s wild beauty is accentuated by its proximity to the completely contrasting neighbouring landscape of industrial south-east Wales. A sense of history also plays its part in the Beacons` appeal. The landscape is dotted with, prehistoric monuments, Roman remains, & medieval castles. The Beacons are loved by visitors from near & far who come for the sheer exhilaration of walking unimpeded across vast swathes of open common l&, for the green freshness of the landscape, for the watersports, mountain biking, fishing & pony trekking.
