Guided Walk

"Milfraen Pits"

This walk visits the site of a 1929 mine disaster as well as viewing an area which we hope to see rewilded in the near future.

A walk of about 10 km (6 miles) over paths which may be muddy. Suitable for older children, but not recommended for people with limited mobility. We leave the Heritage Centre to join and follow the SUSTRANS cycle path through Garn Lakes and then towards the Racehorse Inn. Near this point, we double back, passing the sites of the former Milfraen and Red Ash collieries and then follow the path past the Coity Tips to return to base.

Just turn up. The walks are free and there's no need to book.
