Overview

A stroll around the outskirts of the village of Cil-y-cwm, known for hymn-writers and drovers.  William Williams was a lifelong member of Soar Chapel here and there was an early Welsh school here too.

Our walk is fairly low-level in the Afon Tywi valley, so we can expect boggy and muddy fields.  We have some farm tracks, woodland and country road walking too.

After about 3 miles there's an option to return along a minor road to the cars, shortening the walk by 2 miles.
