Walkers travel from around the world to enjoy this classic long-distance route, which follows the Wye for 136 miles of river and hill walking, from the rugged upland moorlands of the mountains of mid Wales to the Severn near Chepstow. No need for a passport as you criss-cross the border between Wales and England and ramble through the rolling fields and cider orchards of Herefordshire. The Wye Valley National Landscape, with its outstanding natural beauty, dramatic limestone gorges, stunning viewpoints and romantic ruins at Tintern Abbey, provides a spectacular 50 mile finale to the walk, which ends in the shadow of a clifftop medieval castle at Chepstow.
For over 50 years walkers have been enjoying this much-loved trail. Find out about the history of the Walk and how we celebrated its 50th birthday in 2025, and enjoy the legacy of film and art created.
"Mae Llwybr Dyffryn Gwy'n ymlwybro drwy'r rhan brydferth hon o'r byd yr wyf yn ddigon ffodus i'w galw'n gartref i mi. Peidiwch â brysio'r daith. Mae'r llwybr yn aml yn dringo i ffwrdd oddi wrth yr afon gan roi golwg wahanol i chi o'r tirweddau sy'n agor allan ac sydd yn aml, ac weithiau yn llythrennol, yn tynnu eich anadl. Cofiwch aros bob hyn a hyn i fwynhau gwefr yr ysblander o'ch cwmpas.”
