Taith Taf<br />
Taith 55 milltir / 88 km wedi ei marcio ar gyfer cerddwyr<br />
a beicwyr, o dref marchnad Aberhonddu i Gaerdydd,<br />
Prifddinas Cymru yw Taith Taf.<br />
Mae Parc Cenedlaethol Bannau Brycheiniog yn rhoi<br />
dechrau (neu ddiwedd) da i’ch siwrnai, gan ddechrau’n<br />
hamddenol wrth ochr y gamlas, ymlaen i lonydd gwledig<br />
ac yna ar reilffordd segur Merthyr, gan ddringo’n raddol i<br />
fwlch Torpantau. Mae gan dref farchnad Aberhonddu nifer o<br />
atyniadau sy’n cynnwys eglwys gadeiriol, amgueddfa, basn<br />
camlas a theatr.<br />
Fel un o’r trefi sy’n llunio Blaenau’r Cymoedd, mae Merthyr<br />
Tudful yn gyfoethog o ran diwylliant a thirwedd. Ar un adeg<br />
Merthyr oedd prif dref haearn y byd, a daw hanes y dref yn<br />
fyw yn Amgueddfa ac Oriel Gelf Castell Cyfarthfa, Bwthyn<br />
Joseph Parry a Rheilffordd Fynyddig Aberhonddu.<br />
Mae’r daith yn Rhondda Cynon Taf yn dilyn hen linellau<br />
rheilffordd gyda graddiannau graddol drwy gefn gwlad<br />
godidog. Mae Pontypridd yn ganolbwynt i lwybrau beicio<br />
eraill, yn cynnwys y Lôn Geltaidd. Beth am ymweld â’r<br />
amgueddfa a’r hen bont nodedig, Parc Coffa Ynysangharad,<br />
neu beth am ddargyfeirio ychydig i ymweld â Pharc<br />
Treftadaeth y Rhondda?<br />
Yng Nghaerdydd mae coridor Taf yn ymestyn am 8 milltir,<br />
o Dongwynlais, drwy barciau a gofodau gwyrdd, drwy<br />
ganol y ddinas i Fae <strong>Caerdydd</strong>. Mae llawer o brif atyniadau<br />
<strong>Caerdydd</strong>, yn cynnwys Castell <strong>Caerdydd</strong>, Castell Coch,<br />
Techniquest, Stadiwm y Mileniwm a Chanolfan Mileniwm<br />

The Taff Trail<br />
<strong>Caerdydd</strong> i Aberhonddu<br />
<strong>Cardiff</strong> to Brecon<br />
CYMRU / WALES MAP BEICIO / ROUTE MAP<br />
The Taff Trail<br />
The Taff Trail is a 55 mile / 88 km way-marked route for<br />
walkers and cyclists, from the market town of Brecon, to<br />
<strong>Cardiff</strong>, the Capital City of Wales<br />
The Brecon Beacons National Park provides a fine start (or<br />
finish) to your journey, starting gently alongside the canal,<br />
followed by country lanes and onto the disused Merthyr<br />
Railway, climbing steadily up to Torpantau pass. The market<br />
town of Brecon offers many attractions including a cathedral,<br />
museums, canal basin, and a theatre.<br />
As one of the towns forming the Heads of the Valleys,<br />
Merthyr Tydfil is rich in culture and landscape. Once the<br />
iron capital of the world, life is breathed into Merthyr Tydfil’s<br />
history at Cyfarthfa Castle Museum & Art gallery, Joseph<br />
Parry’s Cottage & the Brecon Mountain Railway.<br />
The trail in Rhondda Cynon Taf follows former railway<br />
lines with gentle gradients through attractive countryside.<br />
Pontypridd is a hub of other cycling routes, including the<br />
Celtic Trail. Visit the museum and distinctive old bridge,<br />
Ynysangharad War Memorial Park, or take a short detour<br />
to Rhondda Heritage Park.<br />
In <strong>Cardiff</strong> the Taff corridor extends 8 miles, from Tongwynlais,<br />
through parks and green spaces, via the city centre to <strong>Cardiff</strong><br />
Bay’s waterfront. Many of <strong>Cardiff</strong>’s premier attractions,<br />
including <strong>Cardiff</strong> Castle, Castell Coch, Techniquest, the<br />
Millennium Stadium and Millennium Centre are located in the<br />
Taff Corridor.<br />
