Wye Valley Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Great unmarked section of gravel. If you're not up for scrambling out then leave the path at the first road bridge over the path. The tunnel should be opening mid 2021....if, in the mean time, you're up for something a bit more adventurous keep on to the next section!

Tintern Wireworks Bridge

Highlight • Monument

An interesting old railway bridge which I believe took industrial rail across the river to join Chepstow to Monmouth. The surrounding countryside is stunning and in the local area is Tintern Abbey as well as a sculpture park and other interesting buildings.

Tintern Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

Beautiful abbey. Lots of pubs and the like nearby for food but I recommend the Filling Station cafe. The owners are keen cyclists and you can borrow their track pump and buy spare tyres and inner tubes, as well as your flat white and cake!

Tintern Riverside Walk

Highlight (Segment) • River

Lovely riverisde road in Tintern. There's plenty of benches overlooking the water so it's a lovely spot for a picnic.
