타이틀리 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

The racecourse (for horses) was created in the early Victorian years and was very popular between 1825 and 1846. Horse races continued here in the summer until around 1880. It replaced an earlier racecourse on nearby Bradnor Hill just to the north of Kington town, which dates from 1770.

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

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.

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.

High point of the Nash Wood Red Trail

Stocking Wood occupies the north facing flank of an upland area comprising Herrock, Rushock and Bradnor Hills. Walkers on the Mortimer Trail skirt along its western edge, beyond which a wooded escarpment falls steeply to the valley carved out by Hindwell Brook. There are some lovely views across the valley towards the border with Wales, where more wooded hills rise, including Burfa Bank, the site of an ancient hillfort.
