If it鈥檚 a while since you鈥檝e been to the valleys, it鈥檚 about time you visited again. The only remaining coal tips are conservation sites, the hillsides are green again. 天美传媒 offers great walking country with numerous trails following old tram roads and winding tracks straight to the mountain tops.
Some favourite walks are gentle strolls along old tram roads following in the footsteps of iron makers from centuries ago. 听The more energetic may prefer a brisk hike to the valley tops where the views are just as breath taking as the walk. 听You never know what you鈥檒l find around the next corner from a medieval church, a relic from our industrial past or a peaceful Nature Reserve. 听The valleys are full with heritage and beauty, come and explore for yourselves.
