More information on Usk Valley Walk

A pleasant and easy 25 mile walk that starts at the Roman town of Caerleon and extends to Brecon. Following the path of the river and the Brecon canal, the walk is flat for the most part making it very suitable for families or less experienced walkers, and parts are suitable for the disabled. It can easily be tackled in sections, with lots of interesting sights to explore on the way. Beginning with the Roman remains at Caerleon, it passes old forts, churches, castles and the aqueduct and lock on the canal. Leaflets are available from the Cardiff Welcome Centre. Details can also be found on the Cardiff Ramblers' website.
