Description
Walking Offa's Dyke Path National Trail is a comprehensive guide to one of Britain's most iconic long-distance walks. Spanning 177 miles along the English-Welsh border, this route follows the longest linear earthwork in Britain, offering a unique blend of history, scenery and varied terrain.
The guidebook is divided into 12 stages, with suggestions for alternative 8 and 16 day schedules, making it accessible to walkers of all abilities. Step-by-step route descriptions are accompanied by 1:100,000 OS mapping, while a trek planner provides information on facilities, public transport and accommodation along the route. A separate booklet of 1:25,000 OS maps is also included to aid navigation.
This varied walk takes in stunning landscapes, including the lower Wye gorge, the Severn and Dee rift valley, and the dramatic limestone escarpments of Eglwyseg mountain. With over 60 miles of walking alongside the Saxon earthwork of Offa's Dyke, this trail offers a truly unique and memorable experience.
