We are the Cardiff Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

Our walk begins from the National Trust car park on the B4521 at the southern end of the Skirrid. Parking is free to NT members. A steep climb leads to a ridge walk to the north end of the mountain offering wide reaching views of the Black Mountains and beyond. We then follow a longer gentler descent through open farmland and fields eventually reaching Llanvihangel Crucorney and the famous Skirrid Inn.
From there we head through further fields and a wood before ascending the northern slopes of Bryn Arw. Continuing along the ridge we then descend to a secluded woodland valley then open fields and paths offering a pleasant and easy return to the start.
Local Grade: A
National Trust lay-by on B4521 south of Skirrid.
