About

The Crickhowell, Llangynidr and Llangorse area lies within the Usk Valley, bordered by the Black Mountains to the east and the Brecon Beacons to the south. The landscape is defined by the River Usk, rolling farmland, and the distinctive flat-topped peak of Table Mountain, or Crug Hywel, which overlooks the historic market town of Crickhowell. Llangynidr is known for its canal aqueduct crossing the Usk, while Llangorse sits beside the largest natural lake in South Wales.

Llangorse Lake is a focal point for wildlife and traditional coracle fishing, a practice with ancient roots. The area's history is visible in Crickhowell's medieval bridge with its thirteen arches and the remains of a Norman castle. The Brecon and Monmouthshire Canal provides a level route for walking and cycling through the pastoral scenery.
