Today we’re getting out our hiking boots and heading into
the mountains to dive into the world of the Gwragedd Annwn: the
water women of the Welsh lakes. We start with the most famous
lake lady of all - the keeper of Excalibur in the legends of King
Arthur - before finding ourselves in the Brecon Beacons for the
story of Rhiwallon and the Lady of Llyn y Fan Fach. The
first of a three-part mini-series.
