    Tips

    Its a steep uphill from Taffs Well direction. For an easier ascent aproach from Pentyrch direction. Be sure to take time though to visit "The Garth Pimple" (road cyclist will need to push or carry your bike from the short distance from the tarmac) with its Tumuli and 360 panorama, where you can see as far as Avonmouth and can look down on Castel Coch. Whilst in Taffs Well visit Wales is only Thermal Spring. There is a Free House here for refreshment.

      Steep and a challenge, beginning is a switchback just behind the pub on the corner, 35% at the steepest, with the rest not really dropping below double digit percentages. Definitely one of my favourite ascents to Pentyrch, and one every one should try.
