    The Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal meanders through the Welsh countryside through the Usk Valley and the Brecon Beacons National Park. Built at the end of the 18th century, the canal was once an industrial corridor for transporting coal and iron. Today, it is one of the most tranquil and beautiful waterways in the UK.
