Cwmcarn Forest offers a wide array of activities and events for all ages, including children's explorer trail, fishing, mountain biking and hiking routes for guests of all abilities. Reclaimed by nature after mining operations in the era ceased, the now-peaceful forests provide many opportunities for holidaymakers and admirers of scenic views. The experience starts with the visitor centre, which serves as a convenient starting point, where guests can stock up on refreshments and learn more about the surrounding hills. Visitors can also refuel at Raven's Cafe with freshly cooked meals and snacks, or browse the gift shop, stocked with souvenirs and utensils.
