If thereโ€™s no room in the castle car park, thereโ€™s better space around the corner in the village

This is the start point of the Glyndลตr's Way National Trail which winds through mid-Wales and ends at Welshpool. It's not as popular a trail as Offa's Dyke which is the main reason you'll meet other hikers here in Knighton.

There is a heritage trail throughout the town which provides insights into life in the Clun valley over the centuries.

Great views over the Teme valley to Mocktree ridge, a just reward on the lap down to Bucknell where there are buses passing Bucknell Railway Station (738/740 Mondays-Saturdays) to Leintwardine for those feeling tired.

The poet A.E. Housman described Clun, Clunton and Clunbury as being the quietest places under the sun and it still is. Standing beneath the Norman castle, the township has attracted famous writers such as Chatwin, Forster and Osborne. Time to reflect on the walk as you are nearly there now, time for a well earned drink.
