Reviews
Lovely course and friendly organisers. Food was a highlight!... watermelon, homemade mini vegan sausage rolls and salted mini potatoes. Starts and ends at a campsite. Beautiful part of the world...Offa's Dyke must be one best trails in the country for me. There are plenty of very steep climbs and a wide mix of terrains, not all easy! So a tough one if it's your first. You do need to pay attention to the navigation .. it is well signed but helps to have the GPX and a navigation device. But all in all a brilliant day.
Thanks for your kind words Rich. We are so pleased you enjoyed it and hope to see you soon. Katie x
