Lakeland walk
Location: The Crannog and Llangorse Lake.
Description of this walk: An uphill hike in the heart of the Brecon Beacons.
Llangorse attracts around 50,000 visitors every year, but most of them stay down by the lake. Derek heads away from the water and up to Allt Yr Esgair.
It's an ideal walk for those new to the pastime as well as those who enjoy a decent work-out and it can be split into two sections: the lowlands and the high ground.
Derek is joined by Mike Scruby, a former area warden from the national park who now works at the Ty Mawr farm house, running a series of environmental courses.
They hit the hills as well as checking out the 'crannog', a prehistoric artificial island built in the lake. It's the only one built in England or Wales and is Llangorse's unique point of interest.
