Easy walk, bit rocky at the top, very enjoyable walk

Keeper’s Pond is an amazing pond, outstanding beauty with great views of the Usk valley 🤩

Be aware that if you come down to the dam on the lake you can't escape through the valley, there's a gate on both of these minor roads coming down off the dam with some very threatening signs. You have to take on one of the bastard ramps, east or west doesn't matter, they're both brutal, though I can imagine eastward is worse.

Newly Dragonised by myself 🙌 Blorenge,[2] also called The Blorenge is a prominent hill overlooking the valley of the River Usk near Abergavenny, Monmouthshire, southeast Wales. It is situated in the southeastern corner of the Brecon Beacons National Park. The summit plateau reaches a height of 561 m

A small summit above Risca. Known locally as the "Twmp" (the hump), the pimple or the nipple, due to the shape of the mound on the summit.

Perfect for trail running. Watch of for the wild horses. Amazing views over Abergavenny

Nice little pond, good place to park to do the circular route of Blorenge.
