Fantastic views of the Merthyr Valley, and the surrounding Brecon Beacons National Park. Well preserved Norman vault that is accessible after a steep climb around the 19th limestone quarry. Good food at the nearby Pant Cad Ifor Inn. Also close by, and well worth a visit is the narrow gauge Brecon Beacons Mountain Railway. Lovely local walks and trails take you through the Taff Fechan Nature Reserve; a Site of Special Scientific Interest, managed by The Woodland Trust.

Lovely views overlooking Merthyr Tydfil and a great spot for a picnic. Be careful of cliffs though...

The castle or whats left of it . is not worth the trek up to it, but the views are, its not an easy climb with no sinage pointing the way. Its so small I was stood on top of it, on what looked like a helipad.

A castle in ruins, amazing to think what could of been maybe once was. There is one chamber available to go in and have a look. Nice walk to do a loop of. Some nice views over the Welsh valleys.

Stunning to see that parts of this castle are still around. Shame the people that go to visit it leave their rubbish behind instead of taking it home with them.
