Overview
Tennant Canal is 8 miles in length from Port Tennant to its junction with the Neath Canal at Aberdulais. Aside from the water of the canal itself, additional wetland habitats include a fen and a small area of wet woodland. The site is known to be used by otters, and is of importance to a variety of bird species such as kingfisher, sedge warbler, peregrine and kestrel. It is designated as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation. National Cycle Route 4 runs part way along the Canal. Access via Wern Fawr Road.
