ハンティントンのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

ウェールズとの国境沿いにある、散策に最適な場所です。

The racecourse (for horses) was created in the early Victorian years and was very popular between 1825 and 1846. Horse races continued here in the summer until around 1880. It replaced an earlier racecourse on nearby Bradnor Hill just to the north of Kington town, which dates from 1770.

The group of Monkey Puzzle trees can be seen for miles around, and are a clear way point on the Offa's Dyke path.

Kington is a lovely little town in the shadow of Hergest Ridge, and is a renowned centre for walking. The little museum has an excellent sculpture of Fly the walking dog - which captures the spirit of dogs taken for a good walk in the countryside.

Mike Oldfield created an album called ‘Hergest Ridge’ in 1974 and lived at ‘The Beacon’ the cottage with a first floor extension on Offas Dyke path from Kington which is now a guest house. The golf course encompasses Bradnor Hill and there are benches and wooden shelters at various points. Views across several counties are well worth the walk. If you’re a horse person or just a calm, quiet person around animals you will probably make some pony friends

A beautiful view and a place to pause on the Offa's Dyke Path! There is a nice wooden bench right next to the gate. 🙂

If you hike the Offa's Dyke Path, the passage over the Hergest Ridge is the highlight of the stage from Hay-on-Wye to Kington. Very beautiful views and distant vistas! The path itself does not lead directly over the summit, but you can of course incorporate that if you wish.

This peaceful and unspoilt scene on Offa’s Dyke Path is a favourite! The view looks southwest on the Herefordshire-Powys border with Wales 1 mile (1.6 km) away. The splendid green rolling hills and grassy paths underfoot combine to make this scene and location a walking highlight!
