Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
Dappled wooded glades, eye-stretching views, ancient ruins, towering cliffs and gentle river meadows all hold the key to the lure of the uniquely special Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Just like our National Parks the Wye Valley is a protected landscape and safeguarded in the national interest.
It is the combination of the dramatic and the peaceful in this superb river landscape which makes this an exceptional area for walking, cycling, canoeing and other outdoor pursuits. Long-distance trails, Offa’s Dyke Path and the Wye Valley Walk, as well as many miles of footpaths and bridleways give you the chance to discover the beauty of this special place.
