The County of Gwent (Monmouthshire) is one of great variety. These five walks have been planned to introduce you to the wealth of variety on offer. This short and easy walk is very varied and not to be rushed. The first part along the Conigar Walk is good for birdwatching. We saw mallards and goosanders when we walked it, but there are usually herons and also kingfishers. The walk up through Cwm Cayo is peaceful and very pretty, while Park Wood is rich in woodland birdlife. A visit to the ruins of Usk Castle is interesting and a good end to the walk. Walk 4157 explores the countryside in the middle of the county. The route takes you right round Llandegfedd Reservoir and will be of great interest to birdwatchers. Walk 4159 explores one of the ancient woods to be found in the Wye Valley. Walk 4160 goes to the north of the county to sample the delights of woods, water and mountains. Walk 4161 visits the south of the county to spend time watching birds along the coastal and wetland areas along the estuary.
