What to expect

Join The Great Weekender for a bucket-list adventure through South Wales’ legendary Waterfall Country. Starting the walk, your qualified guide leads you down into deep, tree-lined gorges—an unforgettable descent into one of the most dramatic landscapes in Wales.

Along the route, you’ll explore the Four Waterfalls in turn:

Sgwd Clun-Gwyn, the first powerful cascade

Sgwd Isaf Clun-Gwyn, hidden among sculpted rock

Sgwd y Pannwr, swirling through ancient woodland

Sgwd yr Eira, the famous waterfall you can walk behind

These falls eventually join to form the River Neath, a lifeline that has shaped the region’s history and inspired stories for generations. Your guide will share the area’s rich natural and cultural heritage while ensuring the walk is safe, manageable, and enjoyable for all.
This landscape is of international importance, designated both a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Popularised online by travellers and influencers, it remains one of Wales’ most breathtaking natural wonders.

With over 10 years of experience delivering outdoor adventures, The Great Weekender is the most qualified company to take you there.
