Visit one of the most beautiful medieval castles in Wales, Powis Castle. Made by Welsh princes, the castle has been remodelled many times over the years and is now in the hands of the Herbert family who invite you to explore the magical castle grounds! 

Gilfach Nature Reserve is set in the heart of the Marteg Valley in the Cambrian Mountains, about 4 miles north of Rhayader. It's a lovely place to go for a family ramble even in wet weather, with a network of sign posted walking trails, some of which are suitable for wheelchairs or buggies.

For a truly natural nature trip you can beat the thrills of the Gigrin Farm flocks! Use the five large hides (three of which are accessible to the disabled), you can visit here any day of the year and see Wild Red Kites, buzzards and ravens swarm in to the feeding station and compete for the choicest pickings with what the folks at Gigrin Farm call breathtaking feats of aerial piracy!

BHS approved Lion Royal Hotel Trekking offer a friendly welcome to join in their daily ride out from the farm every morning around 10:30am. You can just turn up and join in either with your own mount or by using one of their experienced ponies and horses which will be allocated to you with temperament and size in mind, based on your level of confidence and experience. Along with your helmet etc of course!
