Kittiwake Walks in the Welsh Borders Using Buses & Trains

20walks/40 pages The borderland between England and Wales, also known as Y Mers or the Welsh Marches, is a rich and diverse landscape that offers a wonderful range of walks from sylvan river valleys to high hills crowned with historic hillforts and burial grounds of the early settlers. It is also a place where almost every village possesses the earthworks of a medieval castle, and more often than not a church too, built by the Normans after the invasion of 1066. The history and culture of the borderland is writ large on the landscape and that is one of its endearing features, for change has been slow in these parts.
