Event Time: 9am Bradley Stoke
13 miles
This is an undulating walk starting from just below Chepstow Castle. We leave the cars heading north along Offa’s Dyke until we reach Brockweir. Here we cross over the Wye and turn south, passing by Tintern and its Abbey before continuing along the Wye Valley way to Chepstow.
Likely to be muddy and hence slippery in places. There is also one large step down to be negotiated.
Bring a packed lunch. Pub to finish.
Walk Leader: Gina and Paul ( (Phone number removed) )
Meet: 9am Bradley Stoke at Aldi/Pizza Hut (Bradley Stoke)
Alternatively meet at 09:30 at Castle Car Park, Bridge Street, Chepstow (free on Sundays).
Grid ref: 535943
How do I join the walk?
Unless stated on the walk page, there is no need to sign up to join a walk. You’re very welcome to try out 1 or 2 walks before you join, but we do insist that after that you join the Brunel Walking Group.
On many walks you can just turn up at the meeting point where we will share lifts to the start of the walk. It’s OK if you don’t drive – we normally have enough drivers who are able to give lifts. Some walks you will need to make your way to walk start or you can post on our facebook group to ask if you can share a lift there.
If sharing lifts passengers are expected to contribute towards petrol costs. Please bring coins or be prepared to make a bank transfer. As a guide, 30p/mile shared by everyone in the car.
How do I know what to bring? And am I fit enough?
We provide a full recommended kit list here. Please do bring water, a rainproof jacket, walking trousers (or similar) and walking shoes/boots – avoid jeans and trainers.
Walks are graded as either 1 boot, 2 boot or 3 boot. Read more about choosing the right walk for your fitness level here,
