A 15 mile route from Bishop's Castle to Cider House Farm in Powys.
This route is one of the oldest in the land – you will be walking through history from the Stone Age to the drovers of recent centuries and enjoying spectacular views from this crest. After leaving the town it never dips below 1,000ft. and 70 miles can be seen on clear days. The route is gently undulating and can be legally used by horse riders and motor bikers as well as walkers. It is crossed by ancient ditches and the way marked by Bronze Age burial sites, stone circles and earthworks of the Iron and Dark Ages.
DIRECTIONS: From Bishop’s Castle go left at the Town Hall (Welsh Street) or right at the Six Bells Inn (Kerry Lane) to walk up onto the Ridgeway. At this stage the Ridgeway is a metalled land and follow it until Pantglas when it veers left to cross the Kerry Hills.
