About

Garnant lies within the Amman Valley, a former anthracite mining centre defined by the River Amman. The landscape is characterised by steep, wooded valley sides and terraced housing built for the industrial workforce. The community remains closely linked to this industrial heritage, with former colliery sites now largely reclaimed by nature or repurposed.

A prominent local feature is the Garnant Country Park, created on the old Cwmamman Colliery land. The Garnant stretch of the Amman Valley Trail, a popular walking and cycling route, follows the course of a former railway line used for coal transport. The area's social and sporting life often centres around its rugby union club, a focal point in the valley.
