For those who love to lace up their boots and explore, the Mid-Wales 4 Day Walking Festival is an unmissable event that perfectly captures the spirit of the Welsh countryside. Running since 1980, this long-standing festival attracts walkers from all over the world, and it’s easy to see why.

Hosted in Llanwrtyd Wells, Britain’s smallest town, the festival is a celebration of walking, socialising, and taking in some of the most breathtaking scenery Great Britain has to offer. The festival isn’t a race – it’s a chance for like-minded people to enjoy the stunning Cambrian Mountains at their own pace.
Why it’s a must-do:
Whether you're an experienced hiker or prefer a leisurely stroll, there’s a route for you. The festival offers waymarked routes of 8, 12, or 20 miles each day, allowing you to choose a challenge that suits you.
Each of the four days covers a different area of the surrounding mountains, ensuring you’ll experience a huge variety of landscapes from moorlands and forests to streams and rivers.
The festival isn’t just about the walks. There’s a fantastic social atmosphere, with evening entertainment and it’s a wonderful opportunity to meet people who share your passion for the outdoors.
The Mid-Wales 4 Day Walking Festival is a brilliant way to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Mid-Wales. It’s a reminder of why this part of the world is so beloved by walkers and nature enthusiasts alike.
If you’re planning your stay at Penrhos for the festival, be sure to enjoy the experience – it’s a journey you won’t forget!
