Overview

From Goytre Wharf car park the walk undulates along good paths and some road, to reach and then follow Cwm y Nant. From there it goes up to open land and along the Cambrian Way, (with views of Sugarloaf and Skirrid Mountains, and down to the coast), to cross Mynydd Garnclochdy and Mynydd Garn Wen to Folly Tower. Finally, back down an old rough rocky path, through woods and fields to then follow the canal back to Goytre Wharf.
