Offa’s Dyke Path is a National Trail 285km long (178 miles) along the border between Wales and England. The route runs from Chepstow in the south to Prestatyn on the north Wales coast.

 

Offa was a famous king of Mercia from 757 to 796, ruling an area stretching across a large part of England.

 

Offa’s Dyke Path runs from sea to sea – the Severn Estuary to Liverpool Bay. For about 112km (70 miles) the Path follows the course of what was originally an 8m ditch and rampart. Castles, forts and historic sites dot the route.
