Overview

For the first part, we will walk to the Upper Lliw Reservoir on a good, wide path.  Returning to the café and toilet area, we will have then completed our 4-mile walk, (approximately 2 hours).

Our additional 2-mile (optional) walk will be around the Lower Reservoir (on a walkable but rougher path). Here we will be closer to the water and also see some lovely wood carvings of various animals.

There is a café and toilet at the start of the walks where we can go for refreshments.
