Henry Vaughan Walk, Talybont-on-Usk
The Henry Vaughan Walk is a gentle stroll through the scenic, historic and poetic landscape of the Talybont Valley. Due to land management and historic features, there are 5 STILES and ONE SHORT FLIGHT OF STONE STEPS, and some rough slopes on this route.
Wherever possible, walk-through kissing gates have replaced the stiles. It is hoped that a ‘barrier-free’ diversion will also be available in the near future. The route links up with the Brinore Tramroad and Taff Trail at Talybont-on-Usk. More details of the walk are available in the Henry Vaughan Walk leaflet. This leaflet can be picked up at the Post Office in Talybont-on-Usk or at local information centres.
