We are the Merthyr Valley Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
From the ruins of the 19th century hunting lodge The Hermitage, which was later used to house German prisoners in WW1, we make a steady climb through the valley in the Black Mountains towards our highest point at Mynydd Llysiau. We then follow the ridge line back where we will have panoramic views (weather permitting!), before descending and returning to our start point.
Phone signal at the start point is unreliable, please contact me prior if you want to meet in Crickhowell and convoy in. DO NOT use the nearest postcode for navigation, you will be 2 miles away from the start point!
Start Place : Roadside by the Hermitage ruins
