Walking in North Gwent and beyond

Welcome to North Gwent Ramblers.

We are a walking group that cover a wide range of group walks from strenuous hill and moderate walks to leisurely stepping stones all over the Brecon Beacons, Wye valley, Herefordshire and the South Wales valleys. 

At North Gwent Ramblers, our mission is to inspire and empower people to explore the great outdoors. We believe that hiking is not only a great way to stay fit and healthy, but also a way to connect with nature and disconnect from the stresses of daily life.

Our group was formed in early 1981 with 15 members, enthusiastic walkers from different towns in Blaenau Gwent.

Our walking community

There are currently 72 members in our group, 1 of whom is one of the original founder members. In the past we have helped with footpath problems, repaired stiles and organised clean-ups.

We all enjoy the interesting and beautiful walks within our area.
