Twenty Six - Cardiff - Garth Hill (307m)

View down to Taff's Well

This is a lovely spot so close to the city, though incredibly windy on the day we were up there. It’s quite a pronounced “lump” so you can see why it was the inspiration for the book (and later film) “The Englishman who went up a hill but came down a mountain”.

Trig pillar at the top.

Visibility wasn’t great but on a clear day you can see Weston-Super-Mare and Devon across the Bristol Channel.

Cardiff city, the Bristol Channel, & the
Somerset coast just visible in the distance.
