Melincourt Falls Nature Reserve Car Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

Melincourt Waterfall a spectacular 80ft (24m) high fall.👌Our first time here and To Be Fair It was certainly a cold one! 🥶
First time on this Stunning perfect for all, little walk up to the fall. Path is fairly level and is well maintained by the Wildlife Trust making this an ideal waterfall walk for all to access.

Ynys Yr Allor Lock Gates

Highlight • Structure

Ynys-yr-Allor, lock No 12 on the Neath Canal, the name means 'Meadow of the Altar', so it's possible that this was once a religious site.
