Blorenge and Hill's Tramroad

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALTHOUGH THS EVENTS SHOWS AS FULL IT IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR PLACES TO BECOME AVAILABLE NEARER THE TIME. PLEASE ADD YOURSELF TO THE WAITLIST AND YOU WILL PROBABLY STILL GET A SPACE.

Join us for a walk combining stunning views and the industrial heritage of South Wales, one of the cradles of the Industrial Revolution. We'll start in the village of Llanfoist near Abergavenny and head up to the picturesque canal wharf to begin. We'll follow the canal for a while before starting a long gradual ascent of the Blorenge mountain via the peaceful Llanelen valley; to be rewarded with a stunning view East over the Usk valley towards the peaks of Sugar Loaf and Skirrid mountains (weather permitting!).

After lunch we'll head across the plateau past the summit cairn to Keeper's Pond, before dropping down onto Hill's Tramroad. This was built to carry iron from Blaenafon Ironworks and we will follow this as it contours around the north face of the mountain, before plunging steeply back down to the canal at Llanfoist.

Well behaved dogs are welcome.
