Make 5 days with a rest day in Hay on Wye +£150pp. The majority of this trip takes place in the Brecon Beacons National Park, one of the most visited parts of the UK, but in an attempt to tackle the issue of over tourism, we have planned the route to avoid tourist pinch points, instead heading north of the National Park, into the lesser known, but arguably more beautiful and serene Cambrian Mountains. The road past the Llyn Brianne Reservoir and on down Abergwesyn Common are spectacular and often very quiet. On this trip you will go on a journey, moving on each day, eventually ending up back where you started. This means that the money you spend along the way, in the independent cafes, pubs, restaurants, gift shops and shops is spread more widely to support the local economy. In addition to this, we also use independently and locally owned Bed & Breakfasts, Hotels and campsites to support the local economy in anyway we can. This also mean that we can build good long lasting relationships with the owners, which in turn makes for a better experience for our customers. Denise who runs the Riverbank B&B; in Llanwrytd Wells and Christine at Ty Helyg Guesthouse in Brecon will give you a warm welcome and see you off with a hearty breakfast of local produce. Customers will be provided with a guidebook, which contains information about the route, as well as information about the history and culture of the area. As the route passes through areas where Welsh is widely spoken, there is also a section on the Welsh language with some basic phrases for you to learn. The guidebooks also contains a section on responsible travel, with some suggestions of how they can reduce their carbon footprint.
