Pont y Pant station, in the heart of the ruggedly beautiful Lledr valley would be the best starting point for those interested in walking to Bishop Morgan’s house, Ty Mawr, a National Trust property accessible by direct hill-path or an easier contouring forest track, though the last part climbs very steeply uphill.
Alternatively, by following the Lledr river westwards the tranquil and unspoilt village of Dolwyddelan can be reached.
