Walking along the River Usk
The Usk Valley Walk follows the route of the river from Caerleon, a short distance north of Newport, to Brecon.
This delightful medium-distance walk, 50 miles long, alternates between the riverbank, public footpaths and the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal towpath. Most of it is level, though you will sometimes have a climb up the valley sides to join the canal towpath.
A few miles at the northern end of the route are shared with the Taff Trail - see our guide to walking the Taff Trail.
Cerdded yng nghyffiniau’r Afon Wysg
Mae llwybr cerdded Dyffryn Wysg yn dilyn yr afon o Gaerllion, nid nepell i’r gogledd o Gasnewydd, i Aberhonddu.
Mae hon yn daith gerdded hynod ddifyr, 50 milltir o hyd gyda gwahanol rannau ohoni yn dilyn glan yr afon, llwybrau cyhoeddus a llwybr camlas Mynwy ac Aberhonddu. Er bod y rhan fwyaf o’r daith yn mynd dros dir gwastad, byddwch yn wynebu ambell i ddarn serth wrth gerdded i fyny’r dyffryn i ymuno â llwybr y gamlas.
Mae ychydig o filltiroedd ym mhen gogleddol y daith yn cael eu rhannu â Llwybr y Taf – gweler ein harweiniad i gerdded ar hyd Llwybr y Taf.
