Welcome to the Elan Valley
Events Programme! 

Click on the menu above to see what events are taking place in each month.

We are currently planning the events programme for 2012, details will be available on this website as soon as they have been finalised!

Photographs on the events pages are courtesy of David Clarke unless otherwise stated.

Most events are free of charge! For all walks please bring suitable clothing and stout boots.  The weather can change quickly here at any time of the year, so it’s always advisable to bring waterproofs.  You may also need sun cream and insect repellent as well.

It is a good idea to bring a drink for any walk, and for the longer hillwalks you will need to bring lunch. Freshly made packed lunches can be ordered in advance from our cafe on (01597) 810899 and picked up on arrival during the months the Visitor Centre is open.

We reserve the right to change/cancel events.

For more information, please contact the Rangers’ Office, Elan Valley Visitor Centre, Rhayader, Powys, LD6 5HP. Telephone (01597) 810880, or use the Contact form on this website.
