Route 5 - Shropshire Hills

Heading North out of Brecon, we pass the world famous book town of Hay-on-Wye and follow the valley to Leominster.

From here we take a swoopy loop towards Worcester on tight and demanding curves.

Through Bromyard, we then cut north again and into the Welsh Marches. Now we zig-zag through picturesque valleys, skirting the river Teme, through the Wyre Forest and along the spine of Clee Hill, passing some views that cover 5 counties!

We head west to Ludlow and north through the Shropshire hills proper, towards Thomas Telford’s famous Iron Bridge that traverses the upper reaches of the Severn.

Then back through pretty Much Wenlock and Church Stretton, before heading south through the old border crossing at Craven Arms and back via Hay and Brecon.
