Overview

A quite flat walk from Wilton Road car park following the River Wye along part of the Wye Valley Walk to Hole in the Wall. On the way we pass the newly erected Railway bird hide, Backney Bridge, a number of interesting view points and the Foy Victorian suspension bridge. We then join the Herefordshire Trail with long reaching stunning views and visit Brampton Abbotts Church before returning to Ross.
