アルメリーの絶景の山頂・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.

Panoramic views west across the Wye Valley to the Welsh hiils beyond. The summit is a bit further east, marked by a wooden post.

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

Great views. Can be a bit muddy in winter. Wear good boots

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.

Taking the footpath to the left (no cycling!) and walking for a few minutes you will reach the summit of Merbach Hill at a height of 318m. From the summit you can take in a vista of views. To the South East the meandering journey of the Wye can be followed with the Malvern's in the background. To the west the imposing Welsh Black Mountains fill the landscape, with Hay Bluff taking centre stage.

Merbach Hill, at 1,043 feet (318 m), is a glorious place to survey Herefordshire’s landscape of patchwork farmland and rolling hills. This is an easy hill walk that rewards with superb views. In the distant east rise the Malverns, whilst the River Wye's wildly meandering course is seen beautifully. Wales' Black Mountains are the panorama's most dramatic aspect, particularly the prominent Hay Bluff.
