It's a blast mate you'll love it not much fire track either.
we started at Glyncorrwg and then joined up with the wall you then double back on yourself.

If you want to stop for food half way then start at the old Afan centre with the Wall climb first so you can get the much better grub a Glyncorrwg.
If not start at Glncorrwg and when you finish the Wall descent go straight back along the fireroad to the start of the climb (I've known some people waste time going to the old centre on the fireroad only to have to double back up the same fireroad on the way out again).
