From its source at 540 metres AMSL on the upper slopes of Bryn Garw in the Cambrian Mountains the Irfon flows southwards past the foot of the ''Devil's Staircase'', along the Abergwesyn Valley, through the scenic ''Camddwr Bleiddiad'' ''(Wolves' Gorge)'', and into the ''Wolves Pool''. It then flows past the forest of Sessile Oaks ''(Quercus petraea)'' to join the Afon Gwesyn at Abergwyesn where it passes beneath the ''Irfon Forest'' and the Nant Irfon National Nature Reserve towards Llanwrtyd Wells. Then it flows eastward through Llangammarch Wells, and Garth to join the River Wye at Builth Wells ''(Llanfair ym Muallt)''. An overall length of approximately 28 miles.〔(UK Rivers Guidebook - Afon Irfon - Camddwr Bleiddiad Gorge to Llanwrtyd Wells )〕
