Overview

We follow wide paths through Wentwood Forest then a short road walk followed by a narrow path through the woods. We then cross a few fields and follow quiet lanes to the village of Llanvaches. We cross more fields and then pick up a small steep path to Gray Hill providing lovely views over the River Severn. The route then takes us along paths and tracks in the forest back to the car park.
