The Wye Valley Walk which follows the river along the English-Welsh border from its source on Plynlimon, high in the Cambrian Mountains of mid Wales.

Legend has it that the three daughters of Plynlimon - the Wye, the Rheidol and the Severn - discussed the best way to flow to the sea and the Wye chose the prettiest route.

And I would heartily agree!
