Gorge Walking is perfect for team building events, school groups or even just friends and family.

We use two gorges in South Wales based within the Brecon Beacons. The Afon Sychryd is a river in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales. Although it is a relatively short river, with a total length of only 3 miles (5 km), it is notable for the gorge and two waterfalls through which it flows.

Afon Mellte or the River Mellte is a river in South Wales. It is formed by the confluence of the Afon Llia and the Afon Dringarth. It then flows south through the village of Ystradfellte to Pontneddfechan where it joins with the Nedd Fechan to become the River Neath.

Gorge walking is fast becoming a sought-after outdoor activity. Scramble through the gorge, climb up waterfalls and leap into pools and we’ll choose the most appropriate location to suit your group.

Let us guide you to the perfect spot for your next adventure!
