Within the boundaries of the Brecon Beacons National Park there are four separate mountain ranges, including the Black Mountains as well as the Beacons themselves. Most of the area is underlain by old red sandstone, which distinguishes it from the more rugged mountains of North Wales, and several walks explore this terrain of smooth, sweeping grassy uplands and wide, open vistas, including the Brecon Beacons Horseshoe. By extending some walks to the south of the mountains, in the valleys, vale and coast of Glamorgan (including Llantwit Major and the Heritage Coast), the scope of scenic and historic attractions is extended.

Even while rambling in the most rugged and remote parts of Wales, one is liable to stumble upon some mysterious link with the past — a ruined building, a track that leads nowhere, an obviously man-made hole in the ground. All these pose questions that insist on answers. Mountain expert Kevin Walker has spent hundreds of days tramping the Welsh mountains and moorlands and has uncovered the stories behind some of these special places, which are rich not only in landscape and scenery, but also in heritage and people, myth and legend, past lives and long-forgotten tales. In Undiscovered Wales he presents 15 one-day circular walks, of varying degrees of difficulty, that pass through locations rich in history. In addition to background information, each of the walks is described in full with photographs, details of the terrain and sketch maps.
