Hiking

The national show caves is a tourist attraction with several ventures including the Shire Horse centre, a life size dinosaur model exhibit, kids play grounds and the three show caves. The caves are awesome, with over 1km of underground passage to explore, waterfalls and large chambers.

Paid entry.

The Showcaves are amazing to see, I highly recommend to anyone to explore it and the area around it. Next door to the Showcaves is Brecon Beacons Resort which is amazing , first time I stayed here and it won't be the last, the place is wonderful with so much to do on your own, couple or family 😀.

Not that much to add here, basically this is a great place to go on a rainy day, or to visit as a rest stop on a bike ride up the Swansea Valley. There is also a great nearby campsite/motorhome venue stay, if you are thinking of staying overnight.
