Overview

We will leave the main car park in Hay on Wye along the Offa's Dyke path. It is a steady climb up hill through fields and woods. Hay Bluff slowly comes into view ahead, drawing us onwards and upwards. Once we get on to the open access land we continue uphill to join the three rivers ride. Skirting around the base of Hay Bluff we will return via Cefn Hill and Cusop Dingle. This makes for a fairly long but varied route with beautiful views. Although this walk is graded as moderate please note that it is quite a long day's walk with quite a long steady ascent in the morning. However we will take our time on the uphill sections.
