Great photo opportunity, but the area can be busy depending on the weather and it’s likely any progress on a bike would be very slow. Early mornings and evenings are good.

Some great views of the valley below once you get on the viaduct

Climbing the Bwlch Mountain southwards from Treorchy (A4061) is a classic South Wales Valleys experience, offering a long, steady ascent. The road winds up from the Rhondda valley onto open moorland where the main challenge often becomes the significant exposure to wind. Enjoy the sweeping panoramic views from the top of this popular and rewarding climb.

You can enjoy lovely views of the town and Afon Valley from this high up viewpoint on Pontrhydyfen Viaduct. The viaduct itself was build in 1898 by the Port Talbot Railway.

An epic ride to climb one of the most scenic vistas in the Southeast Valleys of Wales. ... This route is brutal. It's long. It's hard. It can break your soul.

Starting in the outskirts of Rhigos, this climb takes you past former mining areas and up to the top of Hirwaun Common. The climb passes the fomer Tower Colliery – which used to be the oldest working deep coal mine in the UK but closed in 2008. The climb gives both a feeling of industrial heritage but later the sweeping views of the Hirwaun Common. The first few km are fairly straight but near the summit, there are two switchback hairpins which add an alpine feel to this long-steady climb.

Stop for a while and enjoy the views

A stunning classic welsh castle in the heart of the town. Theres a road that loops all around the castle for a good 360 view. Can be quite busy at times being in the town centre
