The Four Waterfalls Walk is my idea of heaven. Hidden away in a quiet corner of the Brecon Beacons, there is a famous waterfall trail that takes in four great waterfalls, it is located near the quaint village of Ystradfellte. The trail has stunning scenery, and the main access to it is from the car park at Porth yr Ogof, or the Cwm Porth car park, to give it its proper name. The Four Waterfalls are all spectacular in their own different ways, and they are Sgwd Clun-Gwyn, Sgwd Isaf Clun-Gwyn, Sgwd y Pannwr, and Sgwd yr Eira.

Awesome place to visit on a cloudy day when hiking up the hills isn't worth the effort.
