GENTLE …It’s a flat walk!
This circular route takes you from the magnificent Caldicot Castle down to the coast by the Prince of Wales Bridge, along the Wales Coast Path to the Iron Age fort at Sudbrook, and on to Black Rock picnic site for spectacular views over the Severn Estuary.
SEE:
The pumping station at Sudbrook keeping the Severn tunnel free of water.
The Prince of Wales bridge across the estuary from an entirely different perspective.
The statues at Black rock of the Lave Net fishermen (still in operation today) and the engineer who built the tunnel.
St Mary’s church at Portskewett…now there’s an interesting church!
Hear stories of the Castle, the Severn Tunnel disaster and the old ferry across the bridge and more.
A real mix of a walk – the coastal path, the castle grounds, and sites of industry… from the ancient to the new. It’s like travelling through time. The Portskewett Inn is available for refreshment towards the end of the walk.
