Swansea Ramblers Walk


Henrhyd Waterfall

28th April 2013

Leader: Gail Allen




Gail took us through the Geopark of Nant Llech.  This stream runs through a deep gorge and at its eastern end is the wonderful Henrhyd Falls that pours water from high above the gorge.

We had parked in the Pen y Cae Inn and they made us welcome afterwards when we went in to buy refreshments.  Everyone had a chance to socialise and enjoy a great day out with Swansea Ramblers.



Swansea Ramblers offer a range of walks for most abilities.

Try an easy walk of 2-3 hours or our longer strenuous mountain walks for the experienced walker.

Maybe you'd like to explore walking for the first time with a friendly group of people?
- Come with Swansea Ramblers!

If you'd like to try a Swansea walk then do come along and find out what the great outdoors is all about.

It won't cost you anything to come along and see if walking is for you.
You'll be very welcome to join us for three free walks.

If you enjoy walking with us and want to come on even more of our walks, just become a member.

When you join us for a Swansea Walk, ask us about the other walks and social events we do.
