A short circular walking holiday along the River Wye via Chepstow and Monmouth.

Explore both banks of the Wye between Chepstow and Monmouth on this low mileage tour. The trail features spectacular viewpoints to admire nature flourishing on the river at Wintours Leap, the Devil’s Pulpit, Eagle’s Nest and Kymin Hill.
Human history is well-represented too, with several castles to visit, a unique medieval gateway leading the way into Monmouth, and the romantic ruin of Tintern Abbey awaiting a visit.

Visiting the fascinating castles at Monmouth and Chepstow.
Admiring the view from Wintour’s Leap and spotting Peregrine Falcons on the cliff tops.
Enjoying beautiful riverside walking in ancient woodlands.
