The newly opened cycleway weaves around the site of the long-gone purification works next to the International Anthracite Colliery & whilst to its south (behind the photographer) are the grassed mounds of the huge Nant Helen opencast site. The skyline is formed by the limestone mini-mountain of Cribarth.
