Waterfall Galore - It was an awesome experience all the regular routes were easy-medium difficulty. But if you want to see everything and get down to some of the hidden parts of the waterfall it does take some skills, but doable. Definitely recommend but anyone with mobility difficulties I would reconsider vs do some hiking at home before coming here.

Exhausting (for me) but so worth it - We'd stayed the night before in the lodge where the walk starts, great little village with a couple of nice pubs Met Andy and another couple for the walk, had a quick but informative brief before we set off The walk was amazing, the rivers, streams, rapids and indeed the waterfalls were in full flow, had a lunch break at a great little retreat, the last waterfall you actually get to walk behind which was fantastic Great day with the weather holding out for us. Andy was polite, knowledgeable and had a good sense of humour - Oh and he doesn't like sheep!!

Wow some big ones full flow in September 24. - We didn't manage to reach all of the falls as it was a really miserable day but dressed in full waterproof gear we managed several along a muddy rough path in places. Certainly a good experience and one that should not be missed starting at Pontneddfechan, parking is free on the main road layby then just follow the signed path.

Amazing waterfall hike - Amazing waterfalls and scenery. Lunch along the river was very scenic. Only challenging thing were the muddy trails.

Would do it again! - Totally worth it! Even though the trails are well marked having had a guide ensured we didn’t waste anytime. Plus, all the extra information you get. Andy and Kate were fantastic! I would repeat this one or do any other tour with them!

Adventure and joy. Wonderful experience. Cheers to Andy and Kate! - Andy is a super professional and efficient guide! He showed up right on time and provided us loads of options for the hiking paths. He brought us adventure and joy! While we walk, he constantly guided us through history of Walsh mining, geographical locations, industrial history and so much more. He’s greatly knowledgeable about the area. We had a wonderful time with Andy and Kate. Also they have two cute nature lovers called Mally and Lyrics, they are so well behaved and we love playing with them.

Beautiful, diverse hike - A great experience with a small group (just three bookings). The pace was a bit fast but doable with enough time to take pictures and have a chat with Andy the tour guide. You see a lot of different sceneries from waterfalls to the forest to meadows. Definitely recommend!

What a fun exploration of 6 waterfalls with Andy as our guide. - We had a marvelous morning and afternoon as Andy guided us through the trails to explore 6 beautiful waterfalls, even walking behind one! We were given options for more adventurous routes which we happily took. The conversation was was great! Thank you Andy for the great memory!

Walking through misty paradise. - Andy took us through the array of waterfalls with the first and the last one being the best where you could walk behind the waterfall. There were many other stunning waterfall with one even looking like a mini Niagra falls. We spent more than 6 hours with him and his friendly dog Mali. The lunch break was also a delight which would have normally remained closed for tourists on the day we visited, however since Andy is a regular customer, we were allowed in and could indulge in some delightful food. Many Thanks for a memorable day.
