Mountain biking
One of the best UK centres, Llanwrtyd Wells is superb for mountain biking.
Cycle across moorlands, up and down hillside, and through bogs, using
farm and forest tracks, paths and open country. Bikes can be hired locally
and there is a secure, well-equipped bike store (including 1st Aid equipment),
available. Washing facilities, for bikes and people, are provided. Get
fit and energised and ready for anything…

Walking
All walks start from Llanwrtyd Wells and whatever the distance - 10 miles
and 25 miles being the most popular - are designed to include everything
from minor roads to mountains depending on capabilities. Walkers are advised
to carry the local Ordnance Survey Map and a compass at all times. Spot
the Red Kites whilst drinking in the views. Blisters? What blisters? Get
away from it all because mobile's don't work in mountains!

Horse-riding
The first trekking centre was established in Llanwrtyd Wells in the
mid-1950s and continues to this day. Safe riding for all abilities
through pine forests without sight or sound of traffic is relaxing
and therapeutic. Spectacular scenery, a sure-footed friend, and fresh
air - a great way to see the countryside.

Fishing
Fish in the River Irfon at Llanwrtyd Wells for salmon (who knows, you
may catch trout, grayling and chub as well). Sit in solitude and enjoy
the peace, listen to the sound of running water and watch the dappled
light filtered through the trees onto the river surface... just before
you land a 14 pounder!
.....................................................................................................................................................................
Golf
From a local pitch and putt course to 18-hole professional fairways, there
are options for all. Llanwrtyd Wells is surrounded by golf courses - at
Builth Wells, Llandovery and Brecon. Clubhouses are fully equipped. Tee
off with confidence and swing your club for a 'birdie'.
