Cwm Clydach Valley and Mynydd Gelliwastad

Weather permitting, we will have great views on this walk.

 _____________________ 

Initially, we’ll complete a 2-mile circular walk of Cwm Clydach, (via Cathelyd uchaf), descending into the Clydach Valley.

From the valley, we’ll ascend to Craig-cefn-parc for our 1st break.

Following paths through Craig-cefn-parc, we’ll take a route that eventually arrives at the summit of Gelliwastad and the Trig Point. 

On a good day, the views are excellent!!

We will descend via Graig Felen into Clydach, joining the old, tarmacked rail route back to the start point. 

A 2nd break will be taken at a suitable point.

NOTE. If the weather is unkind, the walk route will be shortened to 4 miles.
