Overview

Starting from White Grit, we will walk by Lan Fawr then head west passing through Marrington Dingle. After the Dingle we will make our way to Hagley, The Knoll and Middleton Hall before returning to the start of the walk. There are two steep descents and one steep ascent so poles highly recommended. Panoramic views of the Vale of Montgomery.
