Wye Valley Walk - South Section
https://www.contours.co.uk/wye-valley-walk-south-section
A self-guided walk along the Anglo-Welsh Border and through Wales, from Chepstow to Rhyd-y-Benwch.
From £355 per person
Follow the River Wye along the Anglo-Welsh border and across to the river’s source in Mid-Wales on a walk full of contrasts, from deep limestone gorges capped with ancient woodland to the water meadows and apple orchards of Herefordshire.
Some steep, rocky sections may provide a mild challenge, but the walk keeps primarily to easy pathways through gently undulating countryside. The Wye Valley Walk is an intensely green and enjoyable venture that walkers of all interests will enjoy.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
From £605 per person
Picturesque riverside scenery surrounds you on this winding walk through the meadows of Herefordshire and the border woodlands.
This leg of the Wye Valley Walk hosts Chepstow Castle, presiding on the cliffs high over the river, and the romantic ruin of Tintern Abbey, not the mention plenty of border towns steeped in history. Hay-on-Wye is even known as the ‘town of books’ as it’s the home of over thirty second-hand and antiquarian bookshops!
This is a wonderfully lively walking holiday with plenty of things to see and do between dreamy stints walking on the riverbank.
