National Botanic Gardens, Aberglasney

The National Botanic Garden of Wales is a centre of world significance dedicated to horticulture, conservation, science, education, leisure and the arts. The Garden of Wales is a £43.3 million project that has attracted a £21.7 million investment from the Millennium Commission. The 568-acre Garden and its centrepiece, the Great Glasshouse, opened fully on May 24th 2000. The Garden of Wales` vision is of a world where we understand, value, use, enjoy and sustain plant life to create a balance of life on earth. The philosophy is about giving the next generation a say in the sort of world they want to inherit. Today’s generation has a choice - to make or break the environment. The National Botanic Garden of Wales is a new concept in botanic gardens and a model for the 21st century.

 

Brechfa Forest cycle trail.

Brechfa Forest is the largest man made forest in Europe. It is one of the best kept Mountain Bikers secrets in West Wales.

Rowan Sorrell the South Wales based down-hill rider and trail builder has applied his magic again and developed a network of trails that rival anything else in Wales.

 

Pembrokeshire National Park & Coast

This is Britain's only truly coastal National Park. It's a spectacular landscape of rugged cliffs, sandy beaches, wooded estuaries and wild inland hills, and a place of sanctuary for wildlife.

People belong here, too. They have shaped the landscape over the centuries, leaving their mark in tombs and castles, crosses and cottages, quarries and quays.
Today this is a living, working landscape where people and nature co-exist. The National Park Authority looks after it, helps the public to enjoy and understand it, and works with local communities towards a sustainable future.


 

Towy Fishing

Above Llandovery the river is characterised by rocky gorges and tree-lined pools. On its middle reaches this powerful river with its broad racing glides and deep pools is ideal for night fishing. There, the wading is mainly on gravel, and in many places fishing from the bank is possible. From its estuary to a few miles above Carmarthen town the river is tidal. Here the angler has to be careful of slippery mud banks and strong tidal flows.

Through its entire length the Towy is well supplied with a number of spawning and nursery streams. The Cothi being its main tributary is an important salmon and sea trout river in its own right. The Bran joins the Towy near Llandovery. Joining the river at Llangadog, the Sawdde flows off the Black Mountain, the wettest area of the catchment. Another major tributary is the Gwili which joins within the tidal reaches.

Good catch statistics for the Towy are available for both salmon and sea trout. The sea trout catches are greater than any other river in England and Wales. The number of declared rod-caught salmon and sea trout for the past twelve years are as follows:
