This 40-acre country park forms part of the historic grounds of the Victorian Craig-y-nos Castle and is managed by the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority. The park offers a fun & safe day out for all the family. Easy to follow paths will take you on a gentle stroll past towering beech trees and alongside rushing rivers.
There is a large car park with a compacted stone surface with disabled car parking spaces which have a tarmac surface. This is a pay and display car park with free parking for disabled parking badge holders only.
