Why Walk?
A beautiful, marked walk through trees around this quiet reservoir. Ideal for gentle strolls.
Cwm Lliedi Reservoirs are located in Swiss Valley, just North of Llanelli. The lower reservoir was the first to be constructed in 1878 in order to provide water to the town of Llanelli, the second upper reservoir was then later added in 1905 to meet the growing needs of the town.
These days the two reservoirs are a popular destination for dog-walkers, ramblers and wildlife enthusiasts. There is a 2-mile woodland walk surrounding the reservoirs so there are plenty of birds and wildlife to see.
The western path which is surfaced and is suitable for wheelchair user or the less able walker is accessible from the North car park that has disabled parking bays.
How Long? 0.42 miles
How hard?
The eastern path which is not suitable for wheelchair user has a good gravel surface but can be muddy at times and stout walking boots are recommended.
