Overview

This is a figure of eight walk with the option of either a 6-mile morning walk or a 10 mile full day walk. To begin we walk along woodland footpaths, quiet lanes and forestry tracks with beautiful views over the River Wye. We will come across a beaver enclosure and with  some luck we may spot one or two. There’s one long climb and seven stiles at the end of the walk. In the afternoon, we will walk for four miles exploring the footpaths and lanes on the other side of the village, with a few climbs and great views, weather permitting.
