About

Starting and finishing in the beautiful surroundings of Pontypool Park, this scenic route has something for everyone. In the first few miles you encounter some ups and downs before there is a flat stretch to Mamhilad before a short climb to the picturesque meandering Mon & Brecon canal allowing you to take in the views whilst preparing for the last couple of miles. the last mile is undulating, before entering the Pontypool Park via the large metal iconic gates with a slight climb to the finish line.
