ヤットンでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Another example of a delightful little valley that descends from the nearby hills down to the river. Mainly grassland with woodland, it is quiet and peaceful.

The route gives a view across fields to Foy suspension bridge, which is a foot bridge across the Wye. It was built following repeated disputes with the ferrymen, and there are other similar bridges nearby in this area.

The little valley just north of Eaton Hill farm is a delightful example of rolling Herefordshire countryside, with sheep grazing undulating grassland that is interspersed with fine trees.

Eaton Hill is a bit of a prairie as it is currently growing winter wheat and there are no hedges, but it does make for easy walking and the path is clear. It also gives extensive views especially to the west and south.

The view from the northern end of Ridge Hill towards Ledbury in the east.

This 150ft tower can be seen from a very long way, such as from the Malvern hills to the east. It really is an impressive thing to see from directly below.

The road here is an ancient way that in built on the very top of a distinct ridge, with drops on either side. The top of the ridge is more or less the same width as a single track road, and gives fine views to the east, towards Much Marcle in the south and Ledbury more to the north.

It is not often you see a track where the bed is essentially a broken slab of bedrock that forms the ridge above. It is quite remarkable to see, but needs care when wet as it is pretty slippery.
