Within walking distance of the village, the vast Iron Age archaeological site of Pen-y-Crug occupies the top of a hill (at an altitude of 331 metres). There are five rows of ramparts that form a large circular enclosure. The Celts protected themselves by throwing stones at their attackers from this promontory.

After the ascent, which is accessible to all, it is a pleasure to sit on the old stones of this spectacular site to contemplate the superb view of the Usk Valley or to settle for a good picnic.

Strolling along the banks of the canal (nicknamed "Mon & Brec Canal" for those in the know) to the south of the town is a delightful experience. Lined with flower-filled cottages, its tranquil waters are alive with colonies of colorful ducks. Popular with cyclists and hikers alike, the 56 km-long canal runs south to Cwmbrân. Also navigable, the canal attracts a large number of barges every year: an original outing that's sure to please the kids!
