Glasbury on the River Wye

Highlight • Settlement

Glasbury is located just north of the Black Mountains. After a strenuous climb up to the Gospel Pass, the small village is already waiting with the river Wye to refresh you. Glasbury is a popular place for fishing, canoeing or kayaking, but of course you can also just jump into the water to cool off. Glasbury has some accommodations from B&B to luxurious hotels, so you'll find a great stopover.
