Brecon Beacons Events CalendarFlowing across the northern edge of the Beacons National Park is the river Usk, currently Wales’s premier salmon river and one of the UK’s most famous wild brown trout fishing destinations. The translation of River Usk, or Afon Wysg as it is in Welsh, is appropriately ‘river abounding in fish.’Permits for fishing can be obtained from the Wye & Usk Foundation or call them on 01982 551 520. They provide day tickets for several main river beats, as well as some wonderful wild brown trout fishing on remote tributary streams. You can also contact them to request a free brochure. The Park is also host to a number of reservoirs, lakes and canals. Permits are available for many of these by the water’s edge. Permits for the Breconshire Fishery can be obtained from The Guildhall (01874 622148) or at The Post Office Westend Service Station (01874 623225).
