Take advantage of good weather to cruise the canal that links Brecon with Newport. The area is steeped in history with some of Europe s finest surviving castles: Brecon Castle (0.5 miles) overlooking the River Usk, Abergavenny Castle (20.5 miles) and Crickhowell Castle (14 miles) set against the spectacular hills.
