The largest stillwater reservoir in the Brecon Beacons National Park, Talybont Reservoir is a gloriously serene and picturesque place for a ramble. A haven for wildlife, there's a bird hide that lets you observe the pochards, tufted ducks, mallards and teals that inhabit the area. After a walk here, the village of Talybont offers refreshment and relaxation in its pubs and cafes.

A beautiful section of the canal and the tram road to the reservoir is also a nice area to walk.
