    Tips

    July 14, 2025

    Mountain biking

    To access this area is a very steep incline and decline into this valley section 7- 9% gradient in either direction.

    The Taf Fechan LNR comprises about 2.5 km of river with steep valley sides of Carboniferous limestone. The river has eroded the limestone into a narrow gorge in the centre of the site. A mosaic of deciduous woodland on the slopes with a canopy of Beech, Birch and Ash, gives way to Alder and Grey Willow closer to the river.
