Overview

We walk from the car park through fields and pastureland, with good views of the channel, to St Mary and St Peter church in Tidenham where we will have a coffee break. 

We then join the Wye Valley Greenway (former Wye Valley Railway) to walk through Tidenham tunnel.  The tunnel is 1.1km long and has dim lighting. After the tunnel we climb through woodland to reach the Offa’s Dyke Path.  The route then takes us past the Devil’s Pulpit and Tidenham Park trig to return to the start point.
