Commons Officer - Forgotten Landscapes

The countryside around Blaenavon is stunning. There’s so much to discover. Windswept hills and ancient woodlands, sunken lanes, hidden valleys, wildlife in abundance and history everywhere you look. If like me you love walking, then Blaenavon Industrial Landscape has something to suit all tastes. From the 18km Iron Mountain Trail| to Sunday strolls along the canal| . Without a doubt, Blaenavon has some of the best walking country in Wales.
