Cider Tasting/Tour Walk Hay-on-Wye

Be led by a professional Lowland Walk Leader on a Valley Walk along the Wye Valley path taking in the stunning countryside, (starting in Hay-on-Wye we do a circular loop). Half way we stop at an Artistan Cider producer's orchard, (Artistraw), for a tour, and a chance to taste and buy some delicious local cider! (bring a rucksack or arrange to collect it later). Then after our picnic lunch at the orchard, (bring your own lunch), we then head back across fields and through an acient woodland past a motte & bailey castle overlooking the town of Hay-on Wye. On a good day we should also have stunning views of the black mountains! We will be walking at a steady pace with plenty of rests to look at the views etc.  It's roughly 7.5 miles in lenght and there is a moderate hill on the way back, but if you have an average level of fitness you will be fine, no one gets left behind and hills in stages are what we do!
