Pont Melin-fach
This picnic site is an ideal starting point for exploring the woodlands and waterfalls of the Nedd Fechan valley. The Elidir trail (3 Miles) starts from this car park heading downstream, finishing at the village of Pontneddfechan. Get someone to drop you off at this car park to avoid retracing your steps. The first waterfall you come to is Sgwd y Ddwili. The picture on the right is of Ladies Waterfall, seen on a short detour middway through this walk.
Take care in waterside areas as the rivers can be dangerous. Water is often cold deep and fast flowing. The ground near waterfalls is also steep rough and slippery. Keep to footpaths to prevent unnecessary erosion.
