The Walk starts at Cwmdu Village Hall and follows the Rhiangoll stream through Felindre and up to the campsite. An ancient green lane takes us to Tretower where we can spend time visiting the Court and Castle. Leaving Tretower we follow a path through trees to the Glanusk estate. We cross the private bridge over the River Usk and make our way past West Lodge up to the canal which we follow to Llangattock and return to Crickhowell. A bus will take you back to Cwmdu to collect cars. See the Cadw website for entry fee to Tretower Court and Castle - free for Cadw and English Heritage members.
