Walking the Lower Wye

The Lower Wye Group helps local people enjoy walking and protect the places we all love to walk. Most groups organise regular walks led by local experts – a great way to get outside, make new friends and discover how walking boosts your health and happiness. You are very welcome to try walking with us, or to get involved in looking after paths and green spaces and opening up new places to explore.

Our area covers the Lower Wye Valley, extending from Chepstow to Monmouth, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). We also walk in the Royal Forest of Dean, Monmouthshire between the rivers Usk and the Wye, the Black Mountains, the Brecon Beacons and sometimes further afield.

Regretfully, dogs are not permitted on walks.
