Oldest man made structure in Herefordshire, and a rightly famous ancient monument in a superb setting.

Another incredible historic site. With free parking.

Brilliant viewpoint and lots of route choices that run you south through the Black Mountains

Great spot for a break

Great walk that's pretty accessible for most people to achieve, challenging but doable! The route I took incorporated Lord Hereford's Knob. I published it on Komoot here: https://www.komoot.com/tour/1576268965 And on my blog here (with extra commentary for my own entertainment!): https://weekendwalk.co.uk/route/hay-bluff-walk/

Hay Bluff is a prominent hill at the northern tip of the Black Mountains, an extensive upland massif which straddles the border between south-east Wales and England. The mountain sits at the point where the main northeast-facing escarpment of the Black Mountains meets the northwest facing escarpment, the next peak to the west being Twmpa. The flat summit of Hay Bluff which is marked by a beautiful welsh dragon trig pillar at a height of 677 metres (2,221 ft) overlooks the middle Wye Valley and the book town of Hay-on-Wye.

Choice of two absolutely brutal climbs from the Wye valley to get here but rewarded with fantastic views across the Golden Valley towards the Black Mountains. If that felt like hard work, think of the people who moved the 25 ton capstone up here!

Black Hill stands at the top of the Cat's Back ridge and south of Hay Bluff. The running here is really fun, with good trails underfoot and soaring ridgelines with very far-reaching views. The summit trig point stands at 2,100 feet (640 m).

Hay Bluff stands at 2,221 feet (677 m) at the northern end of a wonderfully runnable ridge. The Offa's Dyke path and the Llanthony horseshoe route both pass it. It's also a good, shorter loop from the Hay Bluff car park to the north, to include the excellent Cat's Back ridge if you have time. Great views to the north over Hay.

Black Hill stands at 2,100 feet (640 m) in the Black Mountain region of Bannau Brycheiniog national park. It's the summit of the awesome Cat's Back ridge to the south and links easily into a nice loop with Hay Bluff to the north.

Rhos Dirion summit 2,339 feet (713 m) marks the highest point on the Rhos Dirion-Chwarel y Fan ridge. You will find the summit is marked by a trig point and some cracking views. Rhos Dirion is a UK-listed Nuttall.

Twmpa, also known as Lord Hereford’s Knob has a sweeping, wedge-shaped profile. It forms part of the awesome north eastern escarpment of the Black Mountains, just a couple of miles over the border from England and offers you a gorgeous (if at times boggy) ridge run. The quickest route up Twmpa ascends from the car parking at Gospel Pass. Just make sure you've warmed up as it's a challenging start for cold muscles!

Unbelievable climb. View is just amazing

Cracking views and great paths

When the cloud clears the views are stunning, easy to access from the parking and an easy path up to it.

The view from Arthur's stone is beautiful! The climb is steepest at the bottom (hitting 25% for longer than anyone needs...) but does ease up to allow for a bit of leg spinning/recovery/regaining your breath!

Arthur's Stone is the oldest human made structure in Herefordshire. Dating back to sometime between 3700 and 2700 BC, it is the remains of a Neolithic chamber tomb. It is located in a wonderfully picturesque spot, on a high ridgeline above the rolling pastures of the Golden Valley.

This is a beautiful area and is popular with hikers, paracenders, bikers and the general population at large. There is a narrow single track road, with ample passing places, that passes over the common below Hay Bluff and it goes onto the famed viewpoint of the Gospel Pass. There's the main car park below the Bluff but there's also ample parking off the road in dry weather too. Super place for family picnics and walks.

Rhos Dirion is a summit in the Black Mountains. It is the highest point on the Rhos Dirion-Chwarel y Fan ridge and the summit is marked by a trig point. Rhos Dirion is a UK-listed Nuttall.

An iconic local Nuttall easily accessible from the car park at Gospel Pass. There are a multitude of walks in the area.
