    Tips

    August 20, 2023

    Pontsticill Reservoir is one of many stunning Brecon Beacons reservoirs and can be found near to the village of Pontsticill in the county of Powys. It’s been in use since 1927 and holds a whopping 3,400 million gallons of water, which is used across houses, factories and other industry buildings across South Wales. It’s so large that it engulfs two different reservoirs (Pontsticill and Taf Fechan). The best bit? You can get two walks for the price of one! The Pontsticill Reservoir walk is flat but with gravel paths in places so will be a bit trickier for those of you with pushchairs or wheelchairs.
