Brynamman Tourist Information |
|
Brynamman (Welsh: Brynaman) sits at the foot of the Black Mountain at the western end of the Brecon Beacons National Park. The Black Mountain Centre housed in a converted school building in the heart of the town is a good place to start your visit. The friendly staff can give advice about local walks and attractions and - what's more - the eatery offers great food at sensible prices. Brynamman is a good place to start a visit to Fforest Fawr Geopark – one of eight areas in the UK designated for their spectacular geological heritage – these landscapes and their people have been shaped by rock –from Bronze Age people who left us cairns on the Black Mountain to the miners of the last century. Check out nearby Ynys Dawela beside the River Amman; once a colliery, it's now a nature reserve bursting with wildlife. Take a trip up the mountain road towards Llangadog and enjoy a fantastic panorama from the viewpoint at the road summit. Also not far away is Henllys Vale – the old tramway makes a great walkway beside the River Twrch and gives access onto the Black Mountain with its industrial archaeological and prehistoric monuments.
