We are the Taff Ely Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

The walk starts at Quaker's Yard railway station and follows the Taff Trail to Edwardsville where the route heads east to Pentwyn Berthlwyd and from there, north to Taff Bargoed Community Park.
Leaving the park there is a long steady climb of 1.6km on a tarmac road towards Mynydd y Capel. From there the route crosses open moorland before a long descent back to the Taff Trail.
Much of the route is along tarmac and rough trails but on the positve side there is only one stile
The railway station does not have a parking area so we will use street parking. Please take care not to interfere with the local community parking.
Some of the tarmac tracks are slippery due to moss so take care on the descents. I recommend walking poles and gaiters.
