Garth Hill rises above Pentyrch and Taff’s Well, its summit crowned by Bronze Age burial mounds. The largest is said to have inspired ‘The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain’, the 1995 film about villagers heaping earth on their hill to give it the height of a mountain. It’s an easy, popular climb with wide views over Cardiff and the valleys. Taff’s Well station sits a couple of kilometres below.
