Access
Easy access from the A5 or A55 roads. Cycling is a very effective way of getting around the narrow lanes that crisscross the reserve. Nearest bus stop is at Pentre Beirw near the RSPB reserve. The reserve entrance is at the west end of Caerau Street but there does not appear to be car parking here. Note: Much of the reserve floods in winter.
