Lady Falls/Sgwd Gwladys is reached from Pontneddfechan at the top end of the Neath Valley. A gentle , dog friendly, walk up alongside the river takes you to the viewing platform and up to the main pool, ideal for a very cool swim on a hot day. There is an option to cross the river and continue to further waterfalls along the valley.
There is a choice of three places for a drink and to eat by the car park all very good and all with outside space or allowing well behaved dogs when not too busy.
