Join Glo i Natur CIC for a guided wildlife walk at the former Pentremawr Colliery in Pontyberem, as part of Wales Nature Week. This walk will explore how nature has reclaimed this once-industrial site, transforming it into a haven for a wide variety of wildlife.

Discover the rich diversity of plants, insects, and other wildlife that now thrive on the old colliery landscape and learn why post-industrial sites like this can be so important for biodiversity.

A typical event involves a guided walk at a nature site. An expert guide will point out plants and animals and the importance of the habitat and answer any questions you have. The vast majority of events are free*

*Entrance charge to a small selection of events may apply. This supports the valuable work the organisation carries out for nature.
