    Tips

    Hiking

    The walk along Craig y Cilau is a pretty special experience. The imposing rock faces of the limestone escarpment are home to a really diverse variety of rare wild plants. Add to this a variety of bird life and bats in some of the extensive cave systems found here and you really do have a nature reserve to enjoy.

    You will find some steep sections to test your strength, and likely some muddy and slippery paths, so come appropriately prepared.
