Twm’s Treks
Twm Sion Cati is reputed to be the 16th Century Welsh Robin Hood with a hideout cave in the hills above Llandovery. Twm’s 7 walking treks bring this beautiful countryside to life with walks linked to the history and culture of Llandovery. The 7 treks are a great way for novice and experienced walkers to explore the area.

He is a member of the BMC (British Mountaineering Council) and MLTA (Mountain Leader Training Association), Ramblers Cymru, and holds a valid Outdoor First Aid Certificate.
