I left Shropshire, for a day walking in the Welsh hills along the Offa’s Dyke path, which took me back to the English side of the border by evening for a safe night’s sleep.

Sunday 11th September

Up early and walked into Knighton. Stopped at Offa’s Dyke visitor centre for coffee. Picked up supplies and left town. The Offa’s Dyke path was the most pleasant walking yet – clear, no mud, and a beautiful day. Listened to John Coltrane for even better walking!

Arrived in Kington to hostel room to myself. The Spar was a shocking affair – blinding large price labels in florescent colours, and a terrible selection. Almost walked out [but had to eat something].

Distance: 21.7 miles [view on map]
