Burger van owners can serve food to people breaking lockdown rules at beauty spots without themselves breaking regulations, a council says.
Wales is at alert level four, meaning non-essential travel is banned and exercise must start and finish at home.
One man spotted a burger van at a remote car park in the Brecon Beacons and posted it on Instagram.
Powys Council said such businesses are classed as essential, although customers could be breaking the law.

One Good Thing: Try reading “A Child’s Christmas in Wales” out loud Vox.com 12/24/2020 Constance Grady
Perhaps you are doing Christmas over Zoom this year.
In that case, you will need to find some sort of festive holiday activity that every member of your party can participate in. Something you can do at a distance, which mostly rules out dinner and crafting and a lot of board games. Something that won’t be affected by an audio lag, which rules out carol singing.
May I suggest that you take turns reading out loud from Dylan Thomas’s “A Child’s Christmas in Wales”?
