Wilderness Walking

A wonderful figure of 8 walk on Mynydd y Lan, a wonderfully wild and peaceful hill in the South Wales Valleys. This walk is part of ‘The Miners’ list, my personal list of the 40 best hills in South Wales.
These walks feature a pond of some sort to wander past.

A lovely loop taking in a pond, some lonely paths, a trig point and some CEN benches.

A lovely circular walk taking in woodland footpaths, disused railways, ancient tracks and a 409m hill topped by a trig point. Free parking is at Pen-y-fan pond and then you can follow generally well signposted footpaths and peaceful country lanes.…
A pleasant walk with plenty of woodland trails, a stream, a reservoir, open fields and some country lane walking.
