Moel y Golfa is a small mature wood in the Breidden Hills, some 5km northeast of Welshpool. Buses run to Middletown from where it is possible to walk straight up into the wood. There is a path along the bottom of the hill and another which goes straight up the tightly packed contours to the summit of Moel y Golfa at 403m. You can see across the Severn Valley all the way to Cadair Idris 60 km away! However note it is not possible to access the other Breidden Hills summits directly from here.
