A walk through the undulating hills of The Begwns, a National Trust owned and managed upland area with protected small lakes and ponds, offering stunning views of The Black Mountains, The Western Beacons and the River Wye Valley. Starting on the east side we climb steadily through this open and well drained moorland, including a break at The Roundabout summit and trig point. The western part of the walk also takes in delightful old bridle ways with additional views.
