Walking in the Shropshire Hills & Offa’s Dyke
Shropshire Hills
Explore the tranquil borderland of England and Wales; stunning countryside, hill forts, heather moors and mediaeval history! Starting from the hill town and health resort of Church Stretton our tour traverses the heather moorlands of the Long Mynd and the jagged rocky summits of the Stiperstones. After crossing Offa’s Dyke into Wales the tour ends at the attractive Georgian market town of Montgomery.
Unfortunately, we are currently unable to offer this tour owing to closure of key accommodation at a critical location. We plan to re-instate the tour when the situation changes.
Offa’s Dyke Path
Rolling hills, green valleys, wild moorland, fields, farms, castles and village inns characterise this tour. To walk the whole trail from Chepstow on the Severn estuary to Prestatyn on the north coast takes a good two weeks, but there are shorter options starting or ending at Hay-on-Wye (the town of books), Knighton (near the half-way mark), Welshpool and Llangollen. Each of these places is accessible by public transport (train and bus).
