Wye Valley Greenway

Running along the route of the former Wye Valley Railway the greenway offers cyclists, walkers, and wheelchair users a safe and sustainable link between Wyedean School, Sedbury & Chepstow to the picturesque village of Tintern, via the spectacular 1km Tidenham Tunnel. These images cover the route as far as the entrance to Tidenham Tunnel. Return to Chepstow via the Gloucestershire Way or alternatively you can follow Offas Dyke National trail. The former is easier and offers a more gentle walking experience. The latter involves a a few ascents and descents if I remember rightly so be advised that in places the walk can be strenuous. Not recommended for beginners or those with little or no hiking experience. Signposted and well way marked but it is always best to take a good map. Open 1st April to the 30th September. For further information check the Wye Valley Greenway website.

They encountered the Silures a local tribe who became Romanised. Large sections of the town walls and remains of Roman shops can be seen. An archaeologist’s paradise with impressive Roman remains.

There is a group of standing stones well known in the area. To reach the top you can start the walk in the village of Llanvair Discoed. Take a good map as the footpaths cross private farm land and there aren't many finger posts or way markers.
