Discover Mid Wales | Wales.com

The Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park flows across the landscape in wave after wave of green mountains from the Wales/England border to the outskirts of Swansea. Wide, open – and untamed – countryside like this characterises much of Mid Wales.

Further north the Cambrian Mountains – the wild “backbone of Wales” – roll on into the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, meeting the mythical peak of Cader Idris, the “Chair of Idris”, high above Dolgellau. Our border country is calmer, dotted with charming country and market towns like Knighton and Welshpool (soak up the scenery from the narrow-gauge Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway).
