Coed Craig Ruperra is an 182m hill in Caerphilly topped by an ancient hill fort and near to Ruperra Castle. The hill offers many walking trails around and up, as well as being crossed by some longer routes – the Rhymney River Circular walk and the Rhymney Valley Ridgeway walk.
Views of Newport, Cardiff and the coast in general are good, as well as views back to Machen Mountain and Pen-rhiw Tip. It is hard to get views of Ruperra Castle from the hill as it is largely obscured by trees, it might be better in winter when the leaves are off.
A really pleasant walk with some benches as resting points, has good points of interest and well maintained paths, highly recommended.
There are lots of different paths you could take, with multiple routes up and down. These paths are well-maintained and some are wide gravel tracks.
The route I took offered some good views North on the way back down, as you walk alongside the hill for a while.
