The Sirhowy Valley Walk in Wales runs from the port of Newport to Tredegar, a town which grew wealthy during the industrial revolution. The path runs along the mountain ridges of Mynydd Machen and Mynydd Manmoel. Part of the trail follows a former tram road. The length of the trail is limited. But the walk is fairly challenging nevertheless.
