Overview

This quite gentle, undulating, route takes us via St. Dubricious’ church at Hentland  downhill towards the Wye to visit the Italianate glory of Hoarwithy church. We cross the river and head towards Kings Caple church and the Norman motte. We join the Herefordshire Trail and descend again to the Wye meadows to cross the footbridge to Sellack church. We  then return through woods and fields to the start point with plenty of time for coffee and cake at the Pengethly Café.
