Pontsticill Reservoir Walk Description
Taf Fechan Forest
From the parking area, head south with the reservoir on your left, first passing the right turn to Talybont-on-Usk. Shortly after, take the next right onto a gravel track, ascending gently in a southerly direction.
Within minutes, some fantastic views of the reservoir open up, well worth spending a few minutes enjoying. From here, the Pontsticill Reservoir walk winds its way inland, in a westerly direction.
Flanked by trees immediately to your right, with forest views to your left, the trail soon veers to the northwest, bringing into view the rolling hills of the National Park.
Shortly, you will reach a wooden footbridge spanning the Nant Car Fach (river), marking the entrance to the forest.
Now, the trail meanders its way through the peaceful tranquility of the Taf Fechan Forest, with little more to disturb you than the crunching of your soles on the dirt track and the chorus of birdsong reverberating throughout the treetops.
It is now simply a case of following the obvious trail through the woods until it finally links up once more with the road that runs alongside the reservoir.
