High above the A470 to the north of Quaker’s Yard, the Giant’s Bite is a dramatic gap in the skyline quarried from the ridge top at the former Cefn Glas mine and quarry. ❤️👌 The site was intensively grazed up to the mid-1990s when a large belt of native trees were planted on the lower slopes. These trees are now maturing and have helped to heal the visible mining scares. The shales forming the upper soil horizons support a wide variety of native flowering grassland species including wild strawberry, cowslip, foxglove and wild thyme, and the site is increasingly becoming re-vegetated by scrub species. Incredibly Fine views of the Taff and Cynon valleys are afforded from the summit ridge, while the line of the former Glamorganshire Canal is also discernible.

We walked miles. Up to the waterfall on Gillies trail, followed the path up onto the rocky and then to the trig point on Twyn Brynbychan, above the cynnon valleys. Enjoyed a breather on top, before trekking around the back forestry where you can see Aberfan and Merthyr Vale and headed over to the bronze age sight before descending down to Cwmaman and back to the car.

Cracking local walk, gain height for amazing views and walk over to twmbarlwm

A fun ribbon of rocky single track contouring around the hillside of Medart with incredible views down the valley to Newport. There are no major features on this section which is just as well: the scenery is breathtaking enough.

Mynydd Twyn-glas is a sprawling 472-metre-high mountain extending into Caerphilly and Torfaen county boroughs in South Wales. It lies southwest of Pontypool, west of Cwmbran and east of Newbridge and taking the form of a rolling plateau the margins of which are defined by steep slopes, many of which are cloaked with conifer plantations. A broad shoulder extending south from the summit is known as Mynydd Maen whilst to the north is Mynydd Llwyd. The thickly afforested northern slopes of the hill drop down steeply into Cwm y Glyn. It is a UK listed Marilyn.

Cefn Eglwysilan is a hill in South Wales, the twin 1,253 feet (382 m) summits of which lie just over one mile (2 km) east of Pontypridd in Rhondda Cynon Taf county borough. Its eastern side lies within the community of Aber Valley in Caerphilly county borough. Like neighbouring Mynydd Eglwysilan, the hill is named after the hamlet of Eglwysilan, the church here being dedicated to an obscure saint Ilan. A wireless transmission station is sited on the more northerly of the two summits (at OS grid ref ST 099911). The southerly one is crowned by a trig point. It is a UK listed Marilyn.
