Llantony walk, food, drinks & camping

Meeting at the Half Moon Hotel in Llantony, plan to walk a circular route of approx 5 miles starting with a visit to Llantony Priory and then up and along the Hatterall Ridge and Offa's Dyke path stopping along the way for a picnic to enjoy the views over the valley.

The walk starts with a short but fairly steep short onto the ridge, but you're then rewarded with great views of the Priory and across both sides of the ridge, it's then relatively flat for the next couple of miles along the ridge, before a longer gentler descent back to the Priory.

Then we'll head back to the Half Moon for food and drinks and can set up tents for those wanting to camp overnight. I will also bring some outdoor games for the afternoon, and if anyone has anything else they'd like to bring along then please do. We're hoping that we can also arrange with the pub to organise a pub quiz or music in the evening.

We have been kindly offered free camping by the hotel but you will need to bring your own tents/camping equipment and anything else you might need. If anyone doesn't want to camp, you still are welcome to just join us for the walk and afternoon/evening.

For those staying overnight, optional on the Sunday to explore further up the valley towards the Gospel Pass with walk along Hay Bluff for the views over Hay-on-Wye and the Wye valley (weather dependent), but open to other suggestions😁
