Park up, walk over the dam, take in the stunning views and landscape over the reservoir, and in the other direction towards Talybont. As you get to the other side, you have a choice, the Taff Trail or, as we did, take the lower track following the reservoir edge. As you get to the turning spot. Head down the bank to the waters edge, for stunning 180deg views over the reservoir and surrounding mountains 👌Continue on the track, which steadily climbes, a rocky tunnel of trees, under a ex-railway bridge and onto the Taff Trail, heading back towards the Dam for some elevated views. 😍
