Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal Towpath Cycle Route

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A great alternative to the road... fully paved so doable on any bike. A great way to get from Abergavenny to the Cycle Route 49... which follows the canal.

Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal Stone Bridge

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

Great surface and route from Gilwerm through to Llangattock on the towpath alongside the canal. There are plenty of hillier ways to do it, of course, but none of them are quite as fast!

Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal Towpath

Highlight • River

This flat and easy tow path runs along the Monmouthshire and Brecon canal, perfect for gravel cyclists, mountain bikers, walkers and runners.

Especially lovely in autumn with the changing colours of the trees, but really a great year-round trail.
