Isn't the majority of it still closed for logging/clearing tree disease?

Worth watching out for this M4 closure, will probably be heavy traffic for a few days. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-south-east-wales-14293311

Do the W2 instead. Its a great day out.
I'd suggest starting from Glyncorryg cause the cafe is better to finish at. Its better to do the Whites climb on fresh legs too.
Brechfa is great but there's not much services there in comparison.

Is Glyncorrwg cafe open? Brechfa is about 40 minutes on from Port Talbot.

I haven't heard otherwise but I don't usually use it cause Afan is my local trail.
There is some talk of the Brechfa Blue/Black trails being closed due to some maintenance of the pipes next to the roads or something.
I'm not sure of the current status of this.

The work's proceeding but they've managed to avoid actually closing the road, just traffic lights in various places. So everything's open as usual.
Beautiful weather here at the moment as well.

Anyone know how conditions are under foot at Afan & Brechfa? I'm at Brechfa Friday & Skyline Saturday this week. Dry enough for a Racing Ralf (dry) or is it Nobby Nics?
