| Start/Finish Keeper’s Pond car park, SO254107
Total distance 9km (5.6 miles)
Total ascent 365m (1200ft)
Time 1.5–3 hours
Maps OS Landranger 1:50000 sheet 161: The Black Mountains
Route summary A circuit of the Blorenge, taking in a tricky descent, industrial archaeology, a challenging climb and an impressive view.
From Keeper’s Pond car park, follow the path around the pond, cross the bridge and continue on narrower trail with occasional rock sections contouring the Blorenge heading roughly north-east.
After 1.75km look for marker stone at a trail fork (265120). The trail straight ahead isn’t marked on the map – take the bridleway that descends to the left. The gradient eases and the trail smooths into fast, flowing singletrack dropping down to the old narrow gauge railway track bed (269127). The bridleway follows the track bed to the right, with a short climb past the old railway tunnel. The trail narrows and steepens to singletrack descent with rock outcrops.
Singletrack joins a wider, grassy trail. Pass through a gate and tackle short climb into the Punchbowl. Follow trail along the edge of the pond wall and take the trail on the right along the tree line. It’s a steep and loose climb, even steeper after the right turn. Once you’ve reached the gate the steepness is over. Follow the more moderate trail to join the road at 278112.
As an optional extra, follow the road westwards for about 400m and take the track that switches back to the right. It’s not a public right of way, but the hang-gliding club that owns the top of the mountain doesn’t mind. It climbs for about 1km to a small brick building and views over the Usk Valley to the Sugarloaf, Skirrid and Black Mountains plus Abergavenny. Descend back the way you came.
Once back to the road, carry on west, climbing to radio masts. Continue for 1km to a T-junction, turn right and Keeper’s Pond car park is 200m away. |
