Day 13 Garn Ddu

The entrance into the Cil Sanws nature reserve is from the corner of the Merthyr Golf Course car park and takes you up onto Cefn Cil-Sanws before walking onto Garn Ddu. I followed the paths across the moorland and some pretty boggy areas where the duckboards were covered in water to the Ponsticill Reservoir dam. I followed the river down the valley via road and the Taff Trail before branching off down a narrow footpath and across the river. You can detour to visit the deserted Vaynor church before continuing along the riverside path back to Cefn-Coed y Cymmer
