Best way to discribe how to get there is.......

Take the left turning off the mc donalds roundabout on A465 if coming from neath, Go along the road about 500 yards ish and turn left on the old road, continue down there around the bend, then you pass a laybye behind some trees, after that you see a large house on the left, then about 400 yards after that is a tunring on the left that takes you into a lane and you will see a house to your left, follow the lane over the canal bridge, "the lane is bumpy but get better over the otherside of the bridge"
Then as you go over the bridge go striaght on past the gate that should be open, if its not its just lift the rope to open. then follow the lane to the lakes.

Anthony, my post above has a link with a step by step map of exactly how to get there.

Just incase you missed it click this - http://www.swansearc.co.uk/outdoor_t...irections.html

If your coming down the Heads of the valley, just turn right at the McDonlads roundabout and the rest is the same.

well that was annoying.

100 mile round trip to stand in a puddle of mud. twas a shame, as swansea had done an excellent job of laying out a lovely track.

***king weather!

doubt it Huw, I believe that Swansea are due to head indoors next month and good weather now is likely to be in even shorter supply
