Overview

As the title would suggest, on this walk we will be ascending Coppett Hill twice, once in the morning and again in the afternoon using different lanes and footpaths.  Coppett Hill affords spectacular views of the Welsh hills as well as the nearby valleys and, of course, the river Wye.  In the morning to start with there will be an amount of flat riverside walking to enable the group to warm up before the first ascent.
