Afon Mellte
A river which can boast more impressive waterfalls than any other in the country.
The Afon Llia and the Afon Dringarth combine above Ystradfellte to form the Afon Mellte which flows on down to the Vale of Neath where on joining with the Nedd Fechan, the Afon Nedd or Neath River is born. The headwaters of the Llia and Dringarth are the Old Red Sandstone uplands of Fforest Fawr.
