Penpych Waterfall

👍👍 Fantastic walk and impressive views of waterfalls and Bleancwm and further down the valley. We did both lower and upper walks following well defined paths . It does get steep going up to the larger waterfalls, but we'll worth it. I would recommend sturdy walking boots for this walk as the path is u...

👍👍 Lovely circular walk. Lots of really nice people with doggies. Hillfort halfway round. Parking free & suitable for around a dozen cars. No bins, so take your doggie poo bags & rubbish home.

👍👍 This is a lovely walk. There is nearby parking and a pleasant walk up the river. You also have walks up both sides of the valley, the left side (with Pontardawe behind you) climbs up to the old house grounds. There is a public right of way climbing from the ground almost up to the top of the mountai...

👍 Good car park beyond the boulders at the entrance and clear (sometimes muddy) paths through woodland with lovely birdsong. The woods open out onto heathland and dogs need to be on short leads during nesting season (March to August).

👍 Lovely walking area although we did lose our bearings at one point. Not signposted so quite hard to find through some narrow lanes.

Matchams Lane Forest

😐 Being close to Hurn airport it is unsurprisingly a bit flat and samey with few views. You can get a proper long brisk 5 mile circuit walk here on gravel or grit paths. There are no short grass areas like in the forest except for scrubby grass tracts like firebreaks between some inclosures. The inclo...

👍 Lovely place for a 45 minute dog walk. Would have given 5 stars but our walk was sadly ruined at the end by my dog being bitten by another dog on the walk. It was an old man with two collies and the collie that bit my dog I think was called Jess. The man didn’t even stop or apologise, just said ‘sto...

Willett Hill

👍 Lovley walk, just a couple small hills. Perfect for dogs, they do need to be on a lead. The best route is straight up and cross the old wall to the castle. Pretty views from the top. Only bad thing was the parking, there's only enough for a couple cars so couldn't go as a large group.
