Penpych Waterfall
National forest
👍👍 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...

👍👍 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...

Stockhill Wood
National forest
👍👍 Beautiful, thick , mossy carpeted woods. Good paths for those with buggies/ wheelchairs...but much more fun to go into the woods on smaller paths and explore! Also worth exploring the hill across the road from the woods. We were there as the sun was going down on a beautiful sunny day, the colours w...

Smaelog Woods

👍👍 Great walking with countless trails. It's basically walk around the top so you can get lost and not really worry about it. Awesome for mounting biking. But you need to be careful when walking or with a dog. If walking on those bike trails or paths it the woods. The biking is hardcore downhill so the...

Cwm Rhaeadr Forest

😐 I couldn't give this full rating because we couldn't actually get to see the waterfalls due to many fallen trees in the pathway at the decent to the falls. There was no way getting over the obstacles even though I'm agile I wouldn't put myself in danger. Such a shame after the easy beautiful walk th...

👍👍 The Keepers River walk is a fairly easy walk that starts and finishes at the free Keepers car park. The walk is approximately 3km but you could make it longer by exploring the many paths and tracks that run through the forest. It's a picturesque walk which takes you through the woodland, along the...
