A beautiful cycle path between Merthyr and Pontsticill Reservoir. The very start of the track at the Merthyr end is narrow and steep (you need to watch out for pedestrians), but it is very short and no indicator as to what the rest of the track is like... which is superb!

A mixed bag, mainly due imo to how old this path is, its quite outdated, has many steep sections, crosses many busy roads and no one really has a clue how to best use it due to poor signage and dangerous entryways.But it gets you away from cars and that's usually worth it.
