By global standards, the #waterfalls near #Pontneddfechan are not huge but I still think they're impressive. Here is the largest one which is perhaps 15 m high. The recent rains meant that there was a good volume of flow on that day. This one is called #SgwdGwladus. I like the #mist rising from the #spray in this scene.

We recently visited the #NationalPark in #Wales which used to be called the #BreconBeacons but is now known as #BannauBrycheiniog. I practised pronouncing it a few times and it's actually quite easy and roles off the back of the throat without a problem for someone who speaks Urdu. There was lots of walking to be done and on the morning of the first day, we went to the #waterfalls at #Pontneddfechan. The return trip was about 10.5 km long. It was a nice way to whet the appetite for hiking in this picturesque part of the country.
The river is called #NeddFechan and over that stretch falls about 200 m in total. This #photograph gives you a good flavour of the scenery.
