Offa's Dyke Path Hall of Fame

I walked Offa's Dyke Path unsupported from south to north in 14 days with friends, Alan and Will. We were blessed with fine Autumnal weather, much sunshine and only two rainy afternoons. Having not walked together previously, we trained beforehand, walking on the Clwydian and Carneddau hills in North Wales…

We walked with 4 other friends who joined us along the way, but for us coming from New York, we planned to walk the entire path and did so in spite of the intermittent rain supplied by the long arms of Hurricane Irma, who was flogging the east coast of…

I walked the Offas Dyke Path this year in September from Prestatyn all the way to Sedbury Cliffs. It has been an amazing 12 day adventure concluding everything from blisters and cold winds with rain to breathtaking sunrises and moments of pure joy. I have to say that this trip, doing…

We started the trail on a wonderful summer's day at the end of august. We had several reasons to want to walk the Offa's Dyke Path and it was no disappointment.We found the walks not only beautiful, and strenuous by times, but to walk upon history is a wonderful feeling.Despite…

I walked the path over eleven days and mostly on my own.  I was very grateful for company on the killer day north of Knighton and for the last two days into Prestatyn. I loved the experience and am very glad that I did it (before I get too old!). 

I completed the trail over a couple of weeks starting the 26th August 2017 through to the 8th September 2017.  I had two fellow walkers with me and we set off heading south to north from Sebury at the Severn Estuary.  This was to be the longest walk we had…

I walked the trail with my friends Shaz and Daz and my dog Jack. The weather was really kind to us and the scenery was stunning. We met some lovely people on the way of several nationalities. I would recommend this walk to everyone. 

I started in Prestatyn on the 21st of August and planned to walk the Offa's Dyke Path in 10 days in aid of Prostate Cancer UK. The first 5 days were the hardest for me,walking on my own (except the dog). The people I spoke to whilst walking were amazing…

I completed Offa's Dyke with 4 friends from the Spartan Red Sox Walking Club in Northern Ireland - 12 days of beautiful rural countryside and heather-covered mountains.  We were blessed with good weather with just 5 hours of rain in total ... challenging hike but the reward was in the…

After several weekend trips over the past couple of years, I've finally completed the Offas Dyke. Lots of great memories, many laughs and a few curse words on the hills. 

After loosing my dad to a long battle with Lewi Body Dementia, I wanted a way to support the cause and raise awareness of the disease. The trail was also a way to spend time in dads memory and was a very special walk for me. It is an incredibly…

The Offa's Dyke Path was my first National Trail and as a newbie it was a steep learning curve €“ sometimes literally so! But it is worth it.The first mistake I made was the size of my pack. I lost count of the number of times I had to explain…

The trail was full on interest, exploring Sedbury Cliffs and Chepstow on our first day we followed the 12 Stage route in Mike Dunn's Cicerone guide. Chepstow to Monmouth was a tough day carrying all our kit, food and equipment. Though the woodland the dyke runs thruogh and views of…

For the first time I walked a trail like this with my dog Jamie, a 2 yr. old Australian Shepherd. We had to go by car to Chepstow to take Jamie to the UK - the first challenge of our trip, because we came all the way from Salzburg, Austria. I thought, we were well prepared…

Offa's Dyke Path was another track I hiked. So beautiful, so sunny and sometimes so pouring wet. But the scenery, the friendly people on the way and the adventure in whole made it a fantastic holiday again.  

Finished the walk that my Brother and I always wanted to do for many years. Loved the walk and the weather (only had 1 day of drizzle). Met other walkers on route and swapped where places to eat/camp/water stations etc were.Also a couple of brave walkers doing the Landsend -John…

It was more than I expected from the very start. The description was not wrong, "Breath taking Borderland".stunning and beautiful the break I needed and glad I took on the walk.Stayed in some great accomodation and was greeted and met really good people.A few horses and ponies, Cows and Bulls,…
