Cwm-Oernant Reservoirs

A lovely place to walk near Carmarthen centre. Lots of trees and greenery with 2 ponds and places to sit and relax. There were ducks and lily pads in June at the time of visiting.

Carmarthen Roman Amphitheatre is one of only seven Roman amphitheatres that survive in the UK. Dating to around 75 AD, the amphitheatre would have been the social centre of Roman Carmarthen. It would have played host to many things, including gladiatorial combats, public executions, man vs beast battles, military parades and holy celebrations. These days, it's a pleasant place to stop for a moment to soak in the history.

Carmarthen Castle

Highlight • Historical Site

Carmarthen is a small town that is thought to be the oldest in Wales. One of the most notable features of the town is the Roman fort, which dates to around 75 AD. The town’s medieval castle is also interesting. History aside, you find plenty of places to eat and drink, shops, and accommodation, making it a great place for a pit-stop or an overnight stay.

Carmarthen Velodrome

Highlight • Structure

Test your speed on the Carmarthen Velodrome. The velodrome is just over 400 metres long, and was opened in 1900, and is believed to be the oldest outdoor concrete velodrome in continuous use in the world.

Members of the public are able to access and use the cycle track (not the changing rooms) free of charge Monday to Friday between 9am and 6pm, Sundays (all day) and during other specific periods as determined by CTC.
