Brecknock and Abergavenny Canal
Highlight • River
You ride on a narrow dirt-trail along the calm waters, idyllically framed by shady, old fairy tale trees. The trail tapers regularly as it passes under any of the numerous bridges, all of which are numbered.
I rode here during the week and I hardly met anyone. I'd imagine it'll be busier at the weekend though!
