We are the Pontypool Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
The walk is mainly on good mountain roads and tracks. It starts from Trelewis, with a steady, easy climb to Mynydd y Capel. There are lovely views along the route, especially that of Aberfan and its cemetery. The area is littered with archaeological features; the easiest one to identify being the site of an ack ack gun. The return is via Treharris.
* Pre-booking requested. Please message walk leader (Lynne Thomas)
Car Park, Parc Taf Bargoed, Trelewis. (Pass through Trelewis and turn left when you see the brown sign for Parc Taf Bargoed. Follow the road down to the right and the car park is on the right hand side, opposite the Visitor Centre.)
