Overview

We leave St Cynogs Church car park (GPS: 51.765223, -3.5296904)(what3words: regal.colonies.rates) and the walk takes us across the Vole with open views down to the Neath valley. It is a circular walk taking in woodland, passing an iron age fort and walking through grass land left by the clearance of the forestry. We will pass the path leading down to the Sgwd Yr Eira fall, where there will be an opportunity for anyone who wishes to go down to. We will then take a leisurely walk back to the village of Penderyn from where we started from with lovely views towards the Beacons.
