    Hiking

    The Brecon Beacons National Park comprises many great peaks, each as worthy as the next – one of the most understated of all these is Carn Pica. This impressive cairn offers wonderful views down over the Usk Valley and across to Tor y Foel. This is one of the best but least busy resting spots in the Brecon Beacons.
