Where to walk
Some ideas on where to walk within the National Park and Geopark
Aircraft Crash Sites
A newly extended version of the original booklet, containing details of an additional ten crash sites has now been produced in partnership with the Royal Air Force Association (RAFA) and is available to purchase through local information centres or by post. The money raised for the RAF Association by the sale of this booklet will go to the Battle of Britain Wings Appeal. This appeal has been raising money since the end of World War 2 in order to provide help, friendship and support to those serving and former members of the Royal Air Force and the Air Forces of the Commonwealth, their spouses and dependants of those who died whilst serving.
Wildlife Walks Why not get a copy of the Wildlife Walks booklet with 12 wonderful nature reserves to visit. Walks are less than 2 hours and many less than an hour so if you have young ones or dont fancy a hike these are the places to go.
Loops & Links There is a new series of walks, cycle routes and horse riding routes to the south of the National Park created by Groundwork and associated with the Taff Trail. Go to the Loops & Links Website for more information.
