R23 - The River Hindwell, Knill Beat

Hindwell, KnillVouchers - Adults 4/ Under 17s 2
Wading difficulty: 1

The Hindwell Brook is a wild trout stream that gently meanders in a westerly direction from its origins in the Radnor Forest to join the river Lugg just below Presteigne. Being spring fed, the river keeps a good flow throughout the summer months. The 2 mile+ Knill Beat runs for the most part over a gravel riverbed, making for relatively easy wading and access.
