WALES
Brecon Beacons Tips: We crossed the Channel with “Le Shutle”, after that a couple of hours by
car and you are in Wales! Maps: You can buy suitable maps everywhere in the region. Accommodation: Sometimes, at Easter, a problem.
“No vacancies” at the plates in the gardens. But, a little site-step by taxi
or bus to the next village, off route, and suddenly plenty “vacancies”. Easter 1997: a round walk through the Brecon Beacons, the typical
sceneries of Wales. Spectacular mountain ranges, distinctive uplands
formations. Nowadays a National Park. Height: 100-820m. |

another famous walk-way) and the great panoramas. |
