An ascent of the Wrekin, near Telford, makes an excellent half day walk. This route offers good views over the Shropshire countryside. It must be noted that there are two short but steep sections of ascent onto the main ridge but the views are outstanding on a clear day and worth the effort.

Walking Offa’s Dyke No3 (Monument)

Visorando Member
↔4.16 mi ↗+436 ft ↘-456 ft ◔2h 20 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Powys
A little easy walk taking in some of Offa’s Dyke path mid Wales and some beautiful scenery. Such an unspoilt walk / area with the entire walk. Wildlife included Red Kites which were flying very close to us, a selection of Eurasian birds, rabbits & the usual sheep which we see a lot of in this area. The route is very well sign posted over the hills… This walk is rated moderate as there are some hilly sections that can be difficult for some people.

Wales to England & back again!
↔10.05 mi ↗+971 ft ↘-965 ft ◔5h 30 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Presteigne (Powys)
A nice testing walk up some steep hills... starting as you walk north out of Presteigne on a road that the border runs along climbing up to see some fantastic panoramic views at The Warren. Once you leave the road, the ground is a bit lumpy heading east for a short distance before heading down towards The Globe woods which are a delightful view with rolling countryside. The path is well marked but with not much traffic, the flora is quite wild with bracken 6ft tall in places... Head down towards the Stapleton ruins which are not accessible to the public but a beautiful view from a distance

Presteigne Loop
↔4.10 mi ↗+167 ft ↘-167 ft ◔2h 00 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Presteigne (Powys)
A delightful easy walk around the historic town of Presteigne taking in some beautiful countryside getting very close to the local sheep / cows and we saw a couple of rabbits along the way. Part of the route follows the River Lugg (Powys) in which you can stand on a bridge with one foot in England & one foot in Wales!

Walking Offa’s Dyke (Discoed)

Visorando Member
↔4.61 mi ↗+1,079 ft ↘-1,050 ft ◔3h 05 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Old Radnor (Powys)
A little walk taking in some of Offa’s Dyke path mid Wales and some beautiful scenery Wildlife included Red Kites which were flying very close to us, a selection of Eurasian birds, rabbits & the usual sheep. The route is very well sign posted apart from the start... as you walk up the road from the start, you have to bear left along a cul-de-sac with a large barn conversion (still having works completed) on your right, head up towards the property in front of you and when you can't go any further, on your left is a driveway to a house... go through the driveway opening and turn immediately right (there is a Bridleway wooden sign but it is hidden in the overgrown hedge) and follow the boundary up to where you will see a gate. This is the path which is marked from thereon... we struggled initially to find the start of the path but the owner came out to help point us in the right direction… I’ve only given it a moderate rating as the first section is a long haul up a very steep long hill
