Overview

A circular ramble starting at and ending at Goytre Wharf. The route takes us up Pentre Hill and onwards to Pen-y-Stair and upwards to Tafarn-gywn-bach. There we meet the Cambrian Way and go in search of the Trig Point at Mynydd-Garn-Wen. From which point us descend to the Canal to quietly walk back to Goytre Wharf. If bad weather is forecast please check the group website (fodramblers.org.uk) to confirm that the walk is going ahead
