Best Walks in the Welsh Borders, Simon Whaley - From beyond Llangollen
in the north to Symonds Yat near Chepstow in the south, the Welsh/English
border offers some of the quietest and most remote walking in Southern

the area to beguile the walker: Offa's Dyke, castles, abbeys, quiet
villages and small towns and the relics of industrial and military
activity. This book selects 35 of the best walks, including ascents of
Wenlock Edge and the Sugar Loaf, and suggests routes for walkers of all
ages and abilities. Published June 07
