Elan Valley

Elan Valley is one of my favourite places in Wales. It's really peaceful, and there's normally hardly anyone there, especially if you head up some footpaths. Ideal for stargazing too, becasue theres next to no light pollution. A rarity in the UK. #GreatOutdoors

Cheeky little panoramic
Another peek at the small dam by the visitor centre. Loads more dams and reservoirs nearby
A must see in the Elan Valley

Huge must visit. Allow several hours to dwell, we had spent 2hours by the first 2 dams and visitor centre. Go to visitor centre for map as they tell you best route.
