Neath Port Talbot Wildlife WalksNeath Canal Wildlife Walk Cover

New Walks Added for 2011!

Neath Port Talbot is rich in wildlife and you’d be surprised what can be found on your doorstep.  To help you start looking and enjoying our local wildlife, the Council, with funding provided by the Countryside Council for Wales for the Rights of Way Improvement Plan, have produced a set of wildlife walks leaflets that guide you on your way as a wildlife explorer.  5 new walks have been added this year, so 9 different walks have been produced in total so far.

These include nine routes of varying difficulty and length: Neath Canal (Easy, 2 miles), Margam Mountain (Hard, 3 miles), Drumau Mountain (Medium, 5 miles), Swansea Valley (Easy, 4.5 miles), Afan and Corrwg Valleys (Easy, 5 miles), Eaglesbush Valley (Medium, 1 mile), Melincourt Falls (Medium, 0.6 miles), Pant-y-sais Fen (Easy, 2 miles).  Plus, three walks of differing difficulty have been included in the Gnoll Country Park leaflet.   Download your copy of the leaflets below or pick them up at Margam Park, Gnoll Country Park, Afan Forest Park or Tourist Information Centres.

 

Help us find more wildlife walks in Neath Port Talbot!

We are looking for more walks in Neath Port Talbot to see wildlife.  The walk can be any length or difficulty.  However, it should have a good chance of seeing interesting animals or plants, or even just one interesting species at a certain time of year.  Walks should be using existing public footpaths or on open access land.
