Talgart Walking Festival offers walks which guide you through the local history, geology, literature and nature. Explore the area with our knowledgeable leaders who will take you on journeys through the landscape from the wooded dingles to the Black Mountains plateau.
The Festival Hub will be based at the Shade Garden, a new installation by the Grow for Talgarth group. This group of enthusiastic gardeners has transformed Talgarth with flower beds and planters to such an extent that the town was awarded a Gold Medal in the Wales in Bloom 2021 competition. It will be the place to check out late availability on walks, and meet off duty walk leaders.
We are planning to hold the 2023 Walking Festival for the first May Bank Holiday 2023, that is Friday April 28th to Monday May 1st. We will be having an eclectic mix of walks to cover all tastes. If you would like to lead a walk with an original theme we would be pleased to consider your suggestion.
Bookings will be taken via the website from February 2023 onwards.
Talgarth ‘Gateway to the Black Mountains’ Walkers are Welcome Group was formed in late 2011 and is made up of local businesses, charitable organisations, accommodation providers and passionate walkers and local residents who want to see our town thriving.
