The view from the 1833ft summit of the Blorenge is one of the most spectacular in Wales; but the road that crosses the mountain from Blaenavon to Govilon and Llanfoist is fairly narrow and steeply sided, so drivers cannot allow their attention to wander! Early maps have the name Bloreys or 'bare spot' for the mountain - this was a name given to high exposed places.
