Day 23 Chepstow to Monmouth

Today we walked the Offas Dyke path. The path was great, well way marked, easy to follow, really nice path. The weather was awful. It rained and rained and rained. The path turned into a mud bath. The views were still lovely but it made the walking harder than it should have been. When we got to Redbrook we stopped for hot chocolate and a rest. This was a lovely little village and after than it was only a couple of hours further to Monmouth. We got to our accommodation The Punch House and cleaned up and have now had a nice walk around Monmouth. It’s a nice town, we’ve seen the remains of the castle and the fortified bridge and had some nice food and a glass of wine and it has stopped raining, so we are happy now 😀
PS John says The trail shoes did not cope with the mud, spent more time on my ass today than on my feet. 😂Read more
