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.

This is the start point of the Glyndŵr's Way National Trail which winds through mid-Wales and ends at Welshpool. It's not as popular a trail as Offa's Dyke which is the main reason you'll meet other hikers here in Knighton.

Knighton is a beautiful border market town and is unique in being the only town to sit astride Offa's Dyke national footpath. It is also notable as the starting point of Glyndwr's Way, following the route of the Welsh leader's significant battles. It is also a mecca for border cyclists and there are plenty of routes to navigate the surrounding hills and stunning countryside.

An opportunity to get overwhelmed by huge amounts of info about Offa's Dyke. And go to the toilet before you set off!

Great stop for cyclists, good coffee, cake and lunchtime light meals. Massive selection of teas. Interesting items for sale

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.

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.

Experience from summer 2019: I wouldn't call the town a highlight anymore, vlt. once it was. In the meantime, it looks partly run down, many shops are closed and restaurants are scarce. It is simply because of the hiking trail Offa's Dike and you therefore have to get through here. I cannot recommend more than a stop-over-night here.

Atop Wapley Hill at 1,050 feet (320 m) the remains of this Iron Age hill fort can be found among mixed woodland. The total site is spread over 6 hectares, with an entrance to the south and defences at a height over 5 metres. There's also a 33 metre deep ritual shaft believed to date back from the late Bronze Age.

Knighton is a market town with winding streets and half-timbered houses. There is evidence of human settlement at Knighton since the Stone Age, but the town you see today is mostly of medieval origin. The Welsh name for the town is ‘Tref-y-Clawdd’, which means ‘town on the Dyke’, and Knighton is the only town to lie on the line of Offa’s Dyke, a large linear earthwork along the England and Wales border named after Offa, the Anglo-Saxon king of Mercia from AD 757 until 796, who is believed to have ordered its construction. As such, it is the spiritual home of Offa and the Offa’s Dyke National Trail.
