Overview

We start at Fourteen Locks on the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal which was an ingenious cascade of locks designed to navigate a drop of 169ft in just half-a-mile.  We then head towards the Sirhowy Valley and walk uphill, once at the top take time to look back at the Views to the North.  .We then head towards the nature reserve and Alteryn Woods, before dropping back down and crossing the canal heading towards Tredegar Park Golf Club, Mescoed Mawr and Newport Golf Club before rejoining the canal back to the start.
