The Brecon Beacons are a mountain range in South Wales. In a narrow sense, the name refers to the range of Old Red Sandstone peaks which lie to the south of Brecon. Sometimes referred to as "the central Beacons" they include South Wales' highest mountain, Pen y Fan.
I highly recommend Pen y Fan if you are new or experienced to walking. Perfect for a couples or family day out, just check the weather before you travel as it a 1hr 10 min drive from the house. It can get very busy in the summer so I recommend you arrive early to find a parking space. Bring plenty of supplies with you as there is no shop at the bottom of the Pen Y Fan!
