*************

Llanfoist (Welsh: Llanffwyst) is a village in Monmouthshire, Wales at grid reference SO287130, very near Abergavenny.

The name of the village derives from St. Fwyst, an early Christian Welsh Saint.

The village is sited beneath the massive Blorenge Mountain, part of the Brecon Beacons National Park, rising 1,838 feet above sea level over the vale of the River Usk. The mountain can be ascended on foot from Llanfoist, straight up its 'front', a very direct route but also very steep. The rewarding views from the top are among the best in South Wales.

The Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal [1] runs just above the village offering an excellent flat route for contour walking along the valley side, with views across to the Black Mountains, Wales. Llanfoist Wharf [2] is a very picturesque spot at the top of the village on a hill. The wharf is now owned by a narrowboat hire company.
