Gilwern

In the heart of the Brecon Beacons, Gilwern is a quiet village on the banks of the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal.

Put on your walking boots and head south along the towpath towards Abergavenny – or hire bikes from Govilon and spend the day exploring one of the prettiest canals on the waterway system. After a few hours of pedal pushing you can reward yourself with a waterside pint and home-cooked meal in the Navigation Inn.

Gilwern

Pentref tawel ar lannau Camlas Mynwy ac Aberhonddu yng nghanol Bannau Brycheiniog yw Gilwern.

Gwisgwch eich esgidiau cerdded ac ewch i gyfeiriad y de ar hyd llwybr y gamlas tuag at y Fenni, neu llogwch feiciau o Gofilon a threuliwch y diwrnod yn beicio ger un o gamlesi harddaf y system ddyfrffyrdd. Ar ôl ychydig o oriau yn beicio, gallwch ymlacio gyda pheint a phryd o fwyd cartref ar lan y d?r yn y Navigation Inn.
