We are the Mortimer Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A Woods
Walking to Tal Y Bont Reservoir (built in 1930's to supply water to Newport), via Usk Valley Walk, admiring the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside and the industrial heritage on our way.
Returning, we retrace our steps for a short way (to avoid road walking), then onto The Henry Vaughan Way (a 17th century poet born in Tal Y Bont) and finally, a stretch on the canal back to Pencelli.
If you would like to join this walk, please book a place with the leader, if you are unable to attend, please cancel your booking so that someone else can take your place. If you turn up without booking we may have to turn you away.
Bring a packed lunch.
Car sharing is encouraged to minimise car parking, fuel costs and carbon footprint.
Assistance dogs only.
Parking at the layby on outskirts of Pencelli village, on B4558, opposite the caravan park. Explorer OL 12.
