Caerphilly mountain

United Kingdom

Caerphilly Mountain (Mynydd Caerffili) lies between Cardiff and Caerphilly at the southern edge of the South Wales Coalfield. Its summit is 271 metres (889 ft) above sea-level. Since 1957 there had been a small wooden snack bar near to the summit. In September 2011 this was replaced by an eco-friendly permanent building, with under floor heating, solar panels and rainwater-flushed toilets, at a cost of £300,000. The mountain includes Caerphilly Common (Comin Caerffili). The climb features regularly on the Tour of Britain cycle race, with double climbs in the 2012 and 2013 races.
