Coed-y Brenin (Roman Road)

Nice easy forest lane this running parallel to the main A470. Either way is possible, but since some "knowledge" is required due to forest tracks its best to start from north end at SH727316, look for a small chapel. It heads south in open country then into a forest, quite muddy and as expected scratches will occur, but little other damage. Look out for the large mile post on the east side somewhere in the forest. It was here while a group took a break, that a large tree just fell down over the track behind them, it shock a few of the group up when they relaised just what had happened. It was windy but not that bad. The south end comes out around SH7227, the track leads to a part tarmac road, then a better road, then a proper road, just like they seem to do. Ff you turn south on the main A470 about a 1 mile on there is a handy pinic stop with toliets etc

At the south end around early 2007 a wooden gate has appeared a with a chain but so far no lock.
