キングトンでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

The group of Monkey Puzzle trees can be seen for miles around, and are a clear way point on the Offa's Dyke path.

Kington is a lovely little town in the shadow of Hergest Ridge, and is a renowned centre for walking. The little museum has an excellent sculpture of Fly the walking dog - which captures the spirit of dogs taken for a good walk in the countryside.

Mike Oldfield created an album called ‘Hergest Ridge’ in 1974 and lived at ‘The Beacon’ the cottage with a first floor extension on Offas Dyke path from Kington which is now a guest house. The golf course encompasses Bradnor Hill and there are benches and wooden shelters at various points. Views across several counties are well worth the walk. If you’re a horse person or just a calm, quiet person around animals you will probably make some pony friends

The ponies like the high ground

If you hike the Offa's Dyke Path, the passage over the Hergest Ridge is the highlight of the stage from Hay-on-Wye to Kington. Very beautiful views and distant vistas! The path itself does not lead directly over the summit, but you can of course incorporate that if you wish.

High point of the Nash Wood Red Trail

Titley is a gorgeous village in the north west of Herefordshire. Its location close to the uplands along the Welsh border means there are some great walking routes in the surrounding countryside, such as a hike to the summit of nearby Bradnor Hill at 1,283 feet (391 m). There are rooms at the Stagg Inn, as well as excellent food. It was the first pub in the UK to be awarded a Michelin Star.

The market town of Kington is an ideal base for exploring Hergest Ridge and Bradnor Hill, both summits on the high ground that separates England from Wales. Accommodation is plentiful and there are a number of pubs, cafes and restaurants for the post-walk refuel. Both the Offa's Dyke Path and the Herefordshire Trail run through the town, while the Mortimer Trail ends here.
