Help connect Maesteg

Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.

Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.

Give a hike and help get a for every one of Maesteg’s Slow Ways.

At Shwt there is a bit of road walking but I didn’t see any cars and then through the woods. At Bettws there is a 100 metre section of narrow road walking with the cars whizzing by, so please take care. As you exit Bettws you go off road and enter the north entrance to Bryngarw country park....
