    Tips

    April 14, 2025

    Road cycling

    Climbing northeastwards towards Keeper's Pond, the World Heritage town of Blaenavon offers a steadier ascent than the fierce Llanfoist side. Experience a consistent climb averaging around 7.5% over 2.3km, with ramps likely peaking near 10%, as you rise onto the open moorland plateau. Enjoy the panoramic views opening up, but be cautious of free-roaming sheep near the popular Keeper's Pond close to the summit.
