We are the Lower Wye Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Starting with a leisurely stroll along part of the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal we begin our ascent of Mynydd Llangatwg across fields and up grass/stone tracks before we level off and take in the panoramic views of the Black Mountains. Following a level walk through disused quarries and Graig Y Cilau (National Nature Reserve) we descend via woodland paths and fields.
Moderate - one long gradual climb and a short but steep descent along a stony narrow path. Two stiles.
Packed lunch required.
Chepstow Leisure Centre car park. Car share places cannot be guaranteed. Post on WhatsApp if wanting or offering car share. Car share levy £4.00 Or go directly to the start point.
From Chepstow head to Raglan and take A40 towards Abergavenny, then A465 and a few miles later taking the exit towards Gilwern following the A4077 towards Llangattock/Crickhowell. Just prior to the bridge take a left into the village and then a right turn towards the church and follow the road around to the car park.
