Day 2:

Rhayader and The Elan Valley:

As you venture from Rhayader towards the Elan Valley, you begin to enter an area that’s known for its dramatic scenery. The land around the Green Lanes starts to rise, with rolling hills giving way to steeper slopes and valleys. The most striking feature of this area is the contrast between the rugged, natural beauty and the serene, man-made reservoirs that punctuate the landscape. The Elan Valley is home to a series of dams and reservoirs, built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to supply water to Birmingham. As you travel along the Green Lanes, you’ll see some of these reservoirs tucked into the valley, their glassy surfaces mirroring the surrounding hills.

In essence, the Green Lanes around Rhayader to the Elan Valley represent a serene and scenic escape into one of the most beautiful and remote parts of Wales, where the natural and historical elements blend perfectly.

We’ll gather in Rhayader at 9:45am for a safety briefing then our route takes us through The Elan Valley and to our first Green Lane of the day.

The Elan Valley is a stunning, untouched region, made even more captivating by its dams and reservoirs, which together form a vibrant, ever-changing landscape.
