ステープルトンのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Offas dykeの本格的な部分を歩くのは素晴らしいです

An isolated and steep sided hill, just over a 1000 ft high, with beautiful woods that have clear paths running through them. There are some magnificent trees to be seen. In parts the paths can be overgrown with bracken, but they are still clear.

You can just about make out the ramparts of Wapley Hillfort, but it is pretty overgrown.

This is the start point of the Glyndŵr's Way National Trail which winds through mid-Wales and ends at Welshpool. It's not as popular a trail as Offa's Dyke which is the main reason you'll meet other hikers here in Knighton.

Knighton is a beautiful border market town and is unique in being the only town to sit astride Offa's Dyke national footpath. It is also notable as the starting point of Glyndwr's Way, following the route of the Welsh leader's significant battles. It is also a mecca for border cyclists and there are plenty of routes to navigate the surrounding hills and stunning countryside.

An opportunity to get overwhelmed by huge amounts of info about Offa's Dyke. And go to the toilet before you set off!

Idyllic lane climb up Stonewall Hill offering far-reaching views into England and Wales (one side of the road is England, the other Wales). A great descent that goes on for ages. Much tougher the other way, of course.
