August 5, 2025,Pontfaen / Tregynon — Parc Cenedlaethol Arfordir Penfro / Pembrokeshire Coast National Park

Main waterfall access is closed due to damage by bad weather / fallen trees. Both access paths are damaged - and it looks like water to the waterfall also disrutped due to debris. It is still a lovely walk and smaller waterfalls beautiful (August 2025)
