Monnow Valley Walk in north-east Monmouthshire, South Wales is a 40-mile (65 km) route from Monmouth to Hay-on-Wye, which follows the River Monnow and the foot of the Black Mountains, Wales. The trail is linear running though the valley of the River Monnow, from Monmouth, near its confluence with the River Wye, to the headwaters below Hay Bluff. At this point, the walk links up with the Offa's Dyke Path National Trail, sharing the same route to the finishing points at Hay-on-Wye.[1]
Notable settlements on route include Monmouth, Skenfrith, Grosmont, Clodock and Hay-on-Wye.[2]
