Chill Cymru: Incredible Bird's-eye Views of Rhigos Mountain, Craig y Llyn and Llyn Fawr - Slow TV

Rhigos lies at the apex of the Cynon Valley and the Vale of Neath. Craig y Llyn, the mountain summit above it, is the highest peak in the traditional county of Glamorgan. A glacial cirque excavated into the Pennant Sandstone scarp of Craig y Llyn holds the glacial lake of Llyn Fawr. Certain parts of the local landscape surrounding Rhigos have been designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest including the wooded gorges of Waterfall Country, Cwm Cadlan and nearby Blaencynon SAC. The nearby South Wales based Zip World Tower site, developed on the former Tower Colliery coal mining site in Rhondda Cynon Taf, is home to four thrilling experiences. There's Phoenix and Tower Flyer zip line rides, Tower Coaster and the Tower Climber. Phoenix is the fastest seated zip line in the world and the steepest in the whole Zip World range. There are four lines beside each other, giving you the chance to race friends and family at speeds of up to 70 mph. In the first Phoenix zone you ride down the Rhigos mountain and across the Llyn Fawr reservoir, experiencing breathtaking panoramic views, to where the pit head remains. The second line takes you back to Tower Colliery, almost a mile in total! Relax, unwind and enjoy this slow TV experience - Chill Cymru.
