Dreamy waterfall
Behind falls I stand,
curtain of light, rushing sound,
moment lost in time.

Henrhyd Waterfall, the tallest waterfall in South Wales, is a stunning hidden gem in the Brecon Beacons. Tucked away in a lush wooded valley, it takes a short but steep walk to reach—but the effort is well worth it. The 90-foot cascade is especially impressive after heavy rain, creating a powerful curtain of water that you can even walk behind. The surrounding area, part of the National Trust’s Nant Llech nature reserve, adds to the secluded and peaceful feel. Whether you’re visiting for photography, a scenic walk, or just to enjoy the natural beauty, Henrhyd Waterfall is a must-see spot.

The falls is named after the Welsh princess Gwladys, who was born around AD 460, and was the daughter of King Brychan of Brycheiniog.

The Sound of Life
Cascading Beauty

Oh Waterfall, with your cascading flow
From the mountain high, down to the valley below
You sing a song of life, as you gush
A symphony of sound, a sight to see, a rush to the senses

The green ferns that surround you, a cloak of emerald hue
Their delicate fronds, a dance in the breeze
A natural wonder, a living tapestry
A sight to behold, a treasure to pursue

Oh Waterfall, with your misty spray
A natural air conditioner, on a hot summer’s day
A cool embrace, a welcome retreat
From the heat of the sun, a comforting presence

The green ferns that embrace you, a symbol of life and growth
Their verdant leaves, a reminder of nature’s bounty
A peaceful oasis, a natural wonder
A sight to behold, a treasure to discover

Oh Waterfall, with your sparkling flow
A source of inspiration, a sight to behold
A natural wonder, a living tapestry
A treasure to pursue, a sight to see
