머시르 타이드필 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

A remnant of Merthyr's past. This bridge carried a railway line that either took you through a tunnel to Aberdare or sent you north towards Cefn Coed and on to Brecon via Torpantau. Under the bridge was the Merthyr to Cardiff Glamorganshire canal which carried the produce of Cyfarthfa iron works to the ports of Cardiff which was then shipped all over the world.

One of my favourite places in the Beacons for cycling or hammock camping.

Lovely visitor centre

narrow section only 1 bike or person can get though. The bridge has been redesigned and the biking gates removed

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.

The Cefn-coed Viaduct is the third-largest viaduct in Wales. This huge, curved structure once carried the Brecon and Merthyr Tydfil Junction Railway and is now part of the Taff Trail, which is Route 8 of the National Cycle Network that runs between Cardiff and Brecon. It offers walkers and cyclists a superb view of the Taf Fawr as it cascades over the many weirs in the valley

Good ride
