Bwlch Nant yr Arian Forest and Red Kite Feeding

In the Bwlch Nant yr Arian Forest you'll find a series of trails for both walkers and mountain bikers. There's a great cafe and shop here, and you can watch the daily red kite feeding, which attracts up to 150 of these marvellous raptors.

Bwlch Nant yr Arian Visitor Centre is managed by Natural Resources Wales. For full details of the visitor facilities here (including trail lengths and grades) and information about any changes or temporary closures to trails or other facilities, and car parking charges please go to our website.The visitor centre is the starting point for a range of waymarked trails for walkers, mountain bikers, runners and horse riders. It is well-known for its long-established tradition of feeding red kites every day.

It was an astonishing sight to see more than a hundred red kites in the sky waiting for the feeding and then all swooping down for the scraps which were thrown onto the feeding spot for them. We can wholeheartedly recommend this.
