About
Bwlch Mountain is a prominent hill in the Brecon Beacons National Park, Powys, Wales. It stands at a height of 532 metres (1,745 ft) and is a popular spot for hiking and hillwalking. The mountain offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, including the valleys of the River Usk and the River Wye. On a clear day, it's possible to see as far as the Bristol Channel and the mountains of England. The hill is covered in heather and bracken, and is home to a variety of wildlife, including red kites, buzzards, and peregrine falcons. The summit is marked by a trig point, and the hill is often incorporated into longer walks and hikes in the Brecon Beacons.

I love Wales and wallets. Really amazing beautiful drive top of the mountain and stop there. Every corner have parking places and very tasty icecream and local biscuits can buy there. So it's really amazing
Very small parking area but great area for a walk. Oh and theres an ice cream van when you get back. What more could you want!!
I've been coming to this part of the Rhondda all my life. First time up the Bwlch. Stunning views.
The views driving up here are amazing, it's like being a bird you're so high up!
Amazing views. Natural beauty and must visit during weekends.. Paradise for photographers
Park up and walk through the gravel gate on the right hand side and you can walk and look at views for hours and see windmills from up close. Great free local visit
