Craig y Parcau Local Nature Reserve

At over three point two hectares, Craig-y-parcau is an oak and ash woodland on a steep slope of the Ogmore River. It is a haven for wildlife with several footpaths.

There is a circular walk of about three quarters of a mile. It is quite flat in parts but does require you to use steps. Sections are muddy and uneven. Look for the ‘robin waymarkers’ which will help to guide you round. The top path through the woods is part of the River Ogmore and Merthyr Mawr Circular Walk, which you could continue on with.
