Mountain rescuers helped injured walkers to safety after three incidents in an area known as Wales' "waterfall country" on Saturday.

Volunteers from Western Beacons Mountain Rescue Team responded after a woman suffered a fractured leg at Henrhyd Falls, Coelbren, in Bannau Brycheiniog, also known as the Brecon Beacons and a Welsh Ambulance Service hazardous area response team helped get her to safety.

A second woman was rescued after injuring her leg at Sgwd Ddwli.

Central Beacons Mountain Rescue Team also received a callout after a man suffered a suspected fractured femur at Sgwd Gwladys, Glynneath.

"We wish all the casualties a speedy recovery," said rescuers in a Facebook post.
