The (mostly) gravel trail around Llys-y-fran Reservoir offers beautiful perspectives on hidden inlets and stunning views at every turn. Don't expect flat terrain, as it's an undulating circuit from the bottom of the dam, up through the woods and over the hills. Running the loop clockwise will give you a flatter finish for tired legs.

The dam wall that creates Llys-y-fran reservoir is an impressive sight, at 100 feet (30 m) high. This section is tarmac, but it soon gives way to gravel and a slightly more forgiving surface. It can be busy in summertime with cyclists and walkers, but the track is wide enough to accommodate everyone without causing any issues. Cafe, and lots of facilities nearby in the activity centre.

Fairly easy underfoot. Best to go out of season if you prefer a quieter walk.
