You will gain 611 feet (186 metres) in elevation, making it a rewarding experience that takes about 2 hours and 10 minutes to complete. As you follow the route, you will walk alongside gentle streams and the majestic River Wye, with the historic Redbrook Viaduct serving as a notable landmark marking the border between England and Wales.
