There are many Gardens and Parks within the area, including a number of Nature Reserves.
Many within minutes of Winchfawr Lodges… and for those keen gardeners there is the National Botanic Garden of Wales which is to the west (45miles)
Cyfarthfa Castle Park
The park is free to visit, and the 150 acres of parkland mean that you will find that quiet spot should you wish to relax after the excitement of visiting the Cyfarthfa Splashpad, or need time to digest the wealth of knowledge from Cyfarthfa Castle Museum.
All the woodland walks and nature rambles are accessible, and will introduce you to the variety of animal, bird and plant species that make Cyfarthfa Park so special.
Parc Taf Bargoed
The former colliery site has been regenerated as a haven for wildlife and centre for community activities.
Parc Taf Bargoed is a Green Flag Park.
The park has facilities for walkers, cyclists, and horse riders and is home of Aberfan Canoe Club and Parc Taf Bargoed Anglers Club.
