A complimentary Mon & Brec Canal guide (MBG) will be available onboard your boat, where information on pubs, walks, mooring spots and water points are given in more detail. There is also a ‘Ready Reckoner’ which will give you an idea on cruising times. If you would like a guide sent out to you before your holiday please contact us. There will be a £4 charge to cover postage and this will be added to your holiday payment.

This itinerary is an example and can be amended or tweaked to your liking. We will go through a complete comprehensive handover before you start your holiday. Please visit the Brecon Beacons National Park for more information on walking trails.
