Guided walks around the site of Gelligaer Roman fort (on the other side of the main road) will be available at various times (from 12.30 p.m. onwards) depending upon demand.
If you are going on the walk 'sensible' shoes are advised as it is a bit rough under foot

All are welcome. You may participate in one, two or all of the options. There is no entry fee but children must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
