Overview

 

We will follow part of the Cilybebyll Trail, above Pontardawe.  This takes us past an ancient church and along the way, we will have views of March Hywel.

We will follow a section of old tramway and pass a disused watermill as we make our way through this attractive countryside.

Social after the walk

Afterwards, we will go to the Pontardawe Inn for refreshments
