Foot in both camps Walk

With a name like Llanymynech, you’d be forgiven for thinking you’re in Wales but this village is cut in two by the border.

Following the canal for much of the first half of the walk, you’re rewarded with a yomp over the heights of Llanymynech Hill and Offa’s Dyke on your return leg.

Offa’s Dyke National Trail is a 285km walk along the Welsh – English border from Chepstow to Prestatyn. Here are a few bite size chunks for you to digest, rather than doing the lot.

  1. Completed this walk many times in both directions,, some excellent views. Also you ca stop for a cuppa at the railway centre when it’s open. A good afternoon jaunt.
