This busy tourist town guards the entrance to the
beautiful Elan Valley where, in the 19th century,
great reservoirs were constructed to provide water
to Birmingham.
The area is a place of deep ravines, dense
woodland, and swooping red kites, pony trekkers
and anglers.
The valley’s visitor centre can be found at Caban
Loch. The Claerwen Reservoir has a dam 184ft high.
