Monnow Valley Walk

The Monnow Valley Walk is a walking route in the Welsh Border counties of Monmouthshire, Herefordshire and Powys.

The Monnow Valley Walk is a river route from where the River Monnow and River Wye meet, to the source of the River Monnow near Charwel Ddu on the east side of Hay Bluff close to the Offa’s Dyke Path, with a four mile section to Hay-on-Wye on the Offa’s Dyke Path.

Discover castles, countryside, vineyards, manor houses, restaurants and more as you follow the Welsh border along the River Monnow from Monmouth. This walk runs parallel to Offa’s Dyke in many places, offering a low level alternative.

Taking the course of the river upstream from Monmouth the walk visits Rockfield, Tregate Bridge, Clappers Wood, Skenfrith, Grosmont, Monmouth Cap, Llancillo, Walterstone, Oldcastle, Clodock, Longtown, Craswall and Hay on Wye.
