Montgomery Trails

Montgomery is our closest town and aren’t we lucky to have such a beautiful one! Montgomery hosts a variety of different walks around the town to help you explore some of the gorgeous landscapes that Wales has to offer. The Heritage Walk around the town will give you a fascinating insight into Montgomery’s history.
Our favourite is the Offa’s Dyke Circular walk taking in the Lymore Estate, which takes you around the back of Montgomery and travels through the surrounding fields. If you are seeking a leisurely walk then this one is perfect for you (4 miles).
