Usk Reservoir lies on the western edge of the Brecon Beacons and offers a remote, tranquil setting. It's a good spot for paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, and birdwatching. A circular path runs around the reservoir, making it ideal for walking or cycling alongside time on the water. Parking is available near the dam, and the gentle shoreline makes launching easy. Its quiet location means you'll often have large parts of the water to yourself.
