S. B.

Lovely park, beautiful even on a misty day! The views are breathtaking. You can remain on the paved path throughout so don’t need to worry about mud too much! Will definitely be back here on a sunny day as well!

R. F.

Lovely place well kept lovely walk and cafe half way lovely owner nothing to much trouble on path will return

Arrived feeling great after the views along the way. Greeted by a local woman, nice and friendly.. gave us directions to find the waterfall but she said, the pathway to follow was overgrown! She wasn't kidding! There was NO WAY my son and I could get through the gate to read the information board, let alone anything else via that route! Saddened by this as we travelled a 40mins drive for the experience to be let down by this hiccup! The parc entrance was so well kept, clean & inviting. The ornamental/historic stories in the slate walls over the bridge etc were an eye opener too. The 2020 painted pebbles by Sienna & other's... how special is that to be placed as a part in history. What's with the bubbles in the sand of the pond though?? Found no creatures to verify habitat! There's a bike track designated around the area but we didn't see/bump into any cyclists yesterday. A very beautiful valley. Look forward to revisiting again to explore more.

N. C.

Beautiful walk around the park, it is paved for those with mobility trouble, and if you're feeling fit a walk up into the forestry is worth it for the veiws across the valley, breath taking. I will definitely go back.

O. B.

Beautiful park and lake at the top of a reasonably long path, perfect for a morning bike ride - the path is inclined upwards towards the park, so the way back to Bryngarw Country Park is all downhill!

H. G.

Nice little walk at the top of the valley ( pontycumer Bridgend )

J. K.

Lovely place for a picnic and walk with the dog. Free parking and lots of lovely woodland paths.

B. G.

A hidden gem nestled at the top of the Garw valley. There’s a pleasant walk on a decent path around the lake or if you’re more adventurous, the path leads up into the hills. I wasn’t that adventurous.

C. D.

Lovely little accessible walk. Stunning views and solid pathways, very clean. Perfect place to take the family.

D. P.

Huge wilderness, walk round the lakes or head up into the vast woodland. Great bike trails and varying walking routes.

d. c.

Beautiful little spot, the dog loves following me around the mountain bike trail.

G. H.

Plenty of parking, still a lot of wildlife and colour in the forms, shame the visitor centre is closed due to Covid, mostly a flat or gradual incline walk

E. D.

Very nice walk. We took a difficult path but well worth it in the end. It's beautiful.

e. g.

Fantastic place to have a picnic . Or wall round the lake

C. S.

Love this place. Almost bought a house in the town couple years back. It's a bit of a drive in land from Porthcawl but it's totally worth it. My dog absolutely enjoyed every minute as well. Plenty of benches to rest at for those like me with disabilities and mobility issues. A nice stream for the dogs to play in. There is a cycle track which is great fun for those into mountain biking. You can choose between a good hike up the mountain side or a pleasant stroll around the pond. Lots of bins around to pick up and throw away your dogs mess which i appreciated. You could take a nice picnic and make an afternoon of it with family easily. It's well kept, I'd recommend to anyone in the area to check it out 🙂

C. W.

Great ponds, fantastic mountain bike trails, amazing scenery. Well worth a visit.

F. B.

What a delightful place for a walk with friends and the information centre and the lady on duty was lovely she made cups of tea and coffee and was most knowledgeable about the whole area. Thank you

T. S.

Tranquil and beautiful. Former railway marshalling area now set aside for public recreation. Great bike trails for those with the knack (and sense). Green thru black trails in the mynydd (mountains).

P. K.

Lovely mountain walks. Variety of levels and heights. Mountain bike track (no motor vehicles allowed). Lovely lake and gorgeous views.

S. C.

N. H.

Beautiful spot to sit and take in the views, very peaceful. Nice stop off place along the nearby bike track too.

J. D.

Lovely walk beeen going there for a couple off years

K. J. (.

Great cycle 🚴 ride from Ogmore Vale to Pontycymmer. Narrow cycle track from Bryngarw up to the Garw though , which is rather overgrown. However, once you've cycled most of the way, it opens up and you come across a couple of lovely lakes with picnic areas and plenty of wildlife.

K. E.

Clean and well laid out. Lots of way markers and a variety of walks.

A. H.

A little piece of Heaven It's Beautiful

R. F.

Lovely place to relax with a cafe for meal or coffee .lovely welcome

L. C.

Lovely place for a short or longer walk. We parked in the car park, walked clockwise around the pond and then up towards the end of the village, when you leave the gates keep to the left past the houses and the path carries on through the forest.

C. H.

I’m sorry to hear that the lady below finds this lovely little park uninteresting. Personally I think that in an understated way, the tasteful statue in tribute to the miners and their families who settled this valley kinda sums up its industrial heritage. Whilst giving a respectful nod to the writer of one of the most beautiful hymns ever written. He used to work here. But I guess the interest you get out is directly proportional to the effort you put in. The lovely views and peaceful riverside benches don’t do it for you? Maybe they could put in a Starbucks?

P. D.

The car park is locked late evening in summer and before dark in winter. The park itself is small an uninteresting but the paths and cycle track that come from and around there are a delight. No public toilets except when information center is open, which isn't often

A. M.

Love it, beautiful walk x

M. R.

Beautiful place for a nice stroll.

M. T.

Lovely location right at the top of cwm Garw. Lots of trails onto the mountains.Bwlchgarw, mynudd llyndwr far and the walk back down to parc Calon Lan were all very good.

Regular cycle ride from sarn to pretty valley spot. About 10 k each way. Perfect place for a walk, some human traffic is expected en route.

Great mountain biking trails, easy to lap due to being relatively short.
