For such a small area, only around 75km (46.5 miles) east to west and around 50km(30 miles) from North to South, Southern Wales certainly fits a lot in. Spectacular countryside, a National Park and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are all packed into the region as well as two cities (one being the nation's capital, Cardiff) and 96km of coastline.
In the Valleys of Southern Wales, famous the world over for their pioneering role in the industrial revolution, there are a wealth of outdoor pursuits, stunning scenery and cultural and historical attractions.
Stretching from Ogmore by Sea to Kenfig, the Golden Coast is a spectacular mix of rugged cliffs, golden sandy beaches and pretty little towns and villages.
Within Cardiff, Wales' Capital you'll find unique attractions, top class entertainment and quality shopping with a difference - all within walking distance.
Straddling the Wales/England border is the Wye Valley, officially recognised as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the Vale of Usk. It is a walkers' paradise.
