View of Blaengarw and Pontycymer from the footpath at the top of the valley. The villages twist and turn as they follow the route which the Garw takes as it winds its way down the valley. In the far distance are the Bristol Channel and England beyond. The really sharp-eyed might like to look for the tall chimney at Aberthaw.
