Ystradfellte - Easter

Added: April 08, 2008

Tags: waterfalls
I have been to Ystradfellte 3 times and I am sure I will return again. It is area containing a lot of waterfalls and I have not seen them all yet.

Going there in this spring time was interesting experience. Weather was quite unstable, we had sunshine, raining, hailstorm several times in those 2.5 hours. As a bonus there were places there full of mud which is not surprising after lot of raining in previous weeks. On other side it helped to richness of waterfalls. I had not seen them so forceful before.

Outside of gorge with waterfalls the region is farmland with a lot of cute sheep. No picture of them, but check the banner - it was taken last year on other side of region.

Trees are really interesting in this region (but also elsewhere in Wales). One might wonder if they were not used as source of inspiration for Lord of Rings...

There are also small waterfalls and streams that look like waterfalls only if size reference is missing ;-)

This one flows directly to the waterfall on next picture - it is visible as the partially obscured waterfall at the top
