キングトンの絶景の山頂・トップ4

Hanter hill is steeper and much less rounded than Hergest ridge, and so gives much better views into Wales and to the surrrounding hills such as Bradnor Hill, Stanner Rocks and Herrock Hill.

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

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

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.

The Whimble has a striking conical shape. The summit is 599m and on a clear day offers great voews with the hill dropping away steeply on all sides. To the southeast, Hergest Ridge and the Black Mountains visible to the south. To the west and north the higher, flat-topped summits of the Radnor Range. To the northeast, Bache Hill.

Wapley Hill, at 1,079 feet (329 m), is a large and impressive Iron Age hillfort. It is not the finest example, as it is quite overgrown. It is also a UK listed Marilyn, so worth a bimble to tick it off.

Beautiful day out hiking two Marilyns in the Kington area. Kington is a gorgeous place to stay and the walk along the Hargest Ridge is a classic little gem.

Bache Hill is a subsidiary summit of Rhos Fawr or Great Rhos, in the Radnor Forest in Wales. It is located to the east of Black Mixen. The summit is marked by a trig point built on an ancient burial mound, probably of Bronze Age date, like most of the summit cairns and round barrows in Wales. It is a UK registered Nuttall.
