Overview

From the old canal feeder pond we descend into a wooded valley and through parts of the Sirhowy Valley. Only one climb on the walk just after coffee break, short but fairly steep. We then cross fields and head to the sleepy village of Manmoel where we will have lunch. We walk a bit of the lane out of the village before following a line of beech tree's and a wooded area and return to Pen y Fan pond.
