Overview

This is a linear walk. We will catch the 10.10 am bus from Kington bus station on Mill Road, jumping off in Presteigne. (contactless accepted) We start by walking along Clatter Brook and up into Nash and Knill woods, eventually reaching the small village of Knill. From here a short uphill section will take us onto the Mortimer trail and Offa's Dyke. There is one strong easy gate that we will need to climb over. This is a lovely and varied walk which should offer some lovely views whatever the weather.
