A Local Gem Featured in The Times Magazine

This week, The Times Magazine shone a spotlight on one of our favourite local walks — the breathtaking Table Mountain. For those interested in Table Mountain Crickhowell | Local Walk Near Cwmdu Campsite, it is just an eight-minute drive from Cwmdu Campsite, this iconic peak offers one of the best short walks in the Brecon Beacons National Park.

Whether you’re a keen hiker or simply want a peaceful morning stroll with spectacular views, Table Mountain is a must-visit destination during your stay.


An Easy Morning Walk with Incredible Views

The Table Mountain walk starts from the charming town of Crickhowell, winding gently uphill to a flat-topped summit that inspired its name. The climb is steady and achievable for most abilities, making it ideal for families, couples, and solo walkers alike.

At the top, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of the Usk Valley, the Black Mountains, and across the heart of the Brecon Beacons. On a clear day, it’s one of the most photogenic spots in all of Wales.

Tip: Bring a flask of coffee and enjoy a peaceful break at the summit — it’s a perfect start to your day in the hills.
