Wye Valley WalkLocation: Wales; Herefordshire; Gloucestershire OS Maps: Explorer™ 200, 188, 189, OL13, OL14
The deep wooded gorge of the lower Wye is perhaps at its most beautiful and stunning at Symonds Yat where the river winds its way between steep cliffs, swinging round in a great loop circling Huntsham Hill and returning to within 400m of its original course. The view from Symonds Yat Rock is spectacular. At little further downstream at Biblins an interesting fun diversion is to be found in the slender suspension bridge which takes the Walk across the river.

The
route follows the river Wye from Rhayader, high in the Welsh Hills,
to its junction with the River Severn at Chepstow. The journey takes
the walker through some of the finest scenery in the British Isles,
including the magnificent woods which line the gorge through which the
river flows in its lower reaches. A number of interesting historical
sites are passed on route including Goodrich and Monmouth castles, the
atmospheric ruins of Tintern Abbey and Clyro, the home of Francis Kilvert
the Victorian diarist.
