Overview

 

In the morning we will take the relatively gentle Ofas Dyke path to the wonderful viewpoint at the Kymin. The descent is rather more steep so poles would be useful. 

The afternoon walk heads across the Wye footbridge and climbs to Penallt church

We will return to Redbrook for lunch at 12:30 so that walkers have a choice of walk length
