This walking guide covers the old, traditional county of Glamorgan plus the western parts of Monmouthshire and corresponds almost exactly to the most industrialised and heavily-populated areas of South Wales, the coal mining and steel making areas that visitors to Wales used to avoid or rush through on their way to the mountains of the Brecon Beacons and the beaches of Pembrokeshire However, there has always been much more to this region than coal mines and steel works. It is a fascinating and uniquely interesting area with superb and varied walking country that comprises a mixture of open moorland, steep hillsides, wooded valleys, fertile lowlands and a magnificent coastline. The latter is not just confined to the well-known coves and beaches of the Gower but also includes the Glamorgan coast between Penarth and Port Talbot. Added to this are medieval castles, picturesque churches and attractive villages and towns.
