Hiking
This is a gorgeous woodland situated at the foothills of the Garth Mountain between the two towns of Taffs Wells and Pentrych.
You'll be walking through a majestic display of ancient broadleaved woodland which is located on a boundary between two soils; acidic and calcareous. The differing soil types make for an interesting variety of fauna, including the Giant Lacewing, which is very uncommon to the area.
