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.

Seeing the remains of Offa’s Dyke ancient earthwork is a highlight of walking the Offa’s Dyke Path between Kington and Knighton. Offa’s Dyke was constructed over 1200 years ago. The original earthwork is thought to have had a height of 8 feet and a width of up to 65 feet (including its flanking ditch). Despite weathering over the centuries its form remains surprisingly clear in places. A location where the remains of the Dyke is still clear occurs two miles north of Kington on elevated farmland near to the Wales border. Here the Dyke appears as a grassy mound with a ditch to its left (when viewed looking westward). It was inspiring and a great adventure to walk in the footsteps of history! A bonus of visiting this elevated site is that it provides on clear days fine eastward views across Herefordshire to the Malvern Hills 30 miles away.

Stunning views from the top of the Crofy Ambrey Iron Age Hill Fort, a perfect place for a picnic. We combined and followed two of the National Trust walks starting from Croft Castle (we found the walks very well sign posted) This view is from the 'Croft Ambrey Walk' and takes you through the fort and its ramparts.

The black and white village of Weobley was once a thriving medieval market town. Today it's a sleepy Herefordshire village but has plenty to see, with a range of historical buildings, and hints at its Saxon and Roman past. The Green Bean cafe and deli is ideal for a coffee or picnic supplies and opens Tues-Sat 0930-1500.

Lovely village with variety of pubs, cafes and shops

Weoble's wobble but they don't fall down! (You have to be of a certain age to understand that!)

Beautiful village. Worth to visit.

Yatton Hill boasts some tremendous views of the Marches region as well as housing the ancient hillfort of Croft Ambrey. The fort is thought to have once covered over 2 acres (0.8 ha) of land and its earthwork ramparts can still be seen today. Excavations in the 1960s found various treasures, such as metal tools, Iron Age pottery and glass objects. Historians believe that between 500 and 900 people lived on the site.

As well as being a marvellous little woodland to explore, Pokehouse Wood has some beguiling folklore attached to it. It is thought that 'Poke' is derived from 'Puck', the up-to-no-good imp of English legend. In days gone by, Pokehouse Wood grew a reputation for travellers and young maidens losing their way or being led astray by something, or someone, that lived among the trees. In order to warn travellers when dark was approaching, the bell at Aymestrey Church was rang before sunset every day. This was at the behest of a concerned local who donated his own money to make this happen and protect the people.

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.

Hergest Ridge runs along the border of England and Wales and affords breathtaking panoramic views. In clear conditions, you can see the hills of Shropshire in the north, the Brecon Beacons in the south and the Malverns in the east. The highest point of the ridge is 1,398 feet (426 m). Offa's Dyke National Trail runs over the ridge, which is also home to sheep and wild ponies.
