Parc Taf Bargoed
Set in the beautiful Taff Bargoed Valley, also home to the Summit Centre, Parc Taf Bargoed is the hidden gem of Merthyr Tydfil County Borough.
The park has facilities for all abilities and can be used for fishing, cycling, walking, horse riding and is easily accessed from the Taff Trail, Trevithick Trail and Celtic Trail, which runs through the site.
The Park was formally the site of the three Collieries, Trelewis Drift, Deep Navigation and Taff Merthyr and covered an area of 50 hectares before being the subject of a land reclamation scheme.
Other activities within Parc Taf Bargoed which you can learn about from the new Parc Taf Bargoed Tourist Information Kiosk include:-
- Canoeing
- Bird watching
- Skate park
- Football and Rugby fields
- Activities at the Summit Centre (formally the Welsh International Climbing Centre)
Launched on the 26th of August 2009, Parc Taf Bargoed is now home to the new Tourist Information Kiosk which houses a Tourist Information Centre Officer and Park Wardens who have a wealth of knowledge on the area.
