Just after passing the coal wagon sculpture you cross this beautiful viaduct, its the Maesycymmer to Hengoed viaduct.
The views from the top are stunning and its a thrill to be able to cycle over it.
We really are very lucky to have access to such scenery.
Here in the U.S. many old railway lines have been dedicated as biking trails. It has been done there too? What a glorious ride that would be (or walk, in my case).
ReplyDeleteGosh what an awesome structure. In the link you gave and in that photo I was amazed at the houses below - they must have rattled like crazy when a train passed overhead.
ReplyDeleteYou are lucky to have access to scenery like this! It must have been inspiring cycling across that bridge. What a beautiful place. You'll have to go back in the summer and show us what it looks like then too.
ReplyDeleteI always think that it is amazing how these things were built.
ReplyDeleteGreat pic.
Oh that must be wonderful biking overt that bridge. Love that picture.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo! How great you were able to cycle over it, and that the weather is getting more Spring like for you.
