Weobley’s five Slow Ways are 35% checked
Help connect Weobley
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Weobley’s Slow Ways.

Nice views towards the Black Mountains and Brown Clee and Titterstone Clee. Very well signposted and most of the stiles were in good nick....

At the highest point on the route, by the gate into Rhodd Wood, it's worth pausing for a break to take in the view west again; the elevation allows sight of distant Gwaunceste Hill, to the left of Hergest Ridge, and the distinctive Whimble Hill, part of the Radnor Forest massif, to the right. After passing to the left of the extensive farm buildings at Elsdon, the route turns right along the lane past the front of the main house at Elsdon (photo seven) where the full sweeping view encompasses Westhope Hill on the left, Burton Hill in the centre and Garnons Hill on the right. Further on, beyond the buildings of The Wood, the view includes Merbage Hill to the left of the Black Mountains, and further left, the ridge above Moccas Park (photo nine). A quiet lane leads down to a footpath across sheep pasture, with views across Weobley Church spire to the distinctively conical Pyon Hill, one of "The Devil's Butts" (photo fourteen). The route meets the A4112 at Whitehill, from where safer walking is facilitated by a roadside pavement all the way to New Bridge, at which point a pleasant footpath leads off the road and through fields, across Windmill Knapp and down into Weobley....

The route passes behind private houses at New Street Cottages and continues across fields to meet the surfaced lane at Meers Place. Another ancient greenway leads through from near Court Farm to the lane to Nupton, from where a well-maintained private drive leads steeply uphill towards Nupton Hill Farm before the route keeps straight on at a hairpin bend and heads up across a field to reach the trees of The Vallets, at which point great views open up the the north, including Titterstone Clee Hill (Photo four). From Roman Road - the northern boundary of the administration of Hereford City - the route follows the Yazor Brook into the City centre. The route continues on the lane until branching off it at a footpath that leads across fields to Whitecross School (Photo eight) beyond which is a pedestrian crossing that lies just south of the former road bridge over the Hereford to Hay-on-Wye railway line The route passes Brooks Restoration Project interpretation boards by Trinity School and then Yazor Road (Photos ten and eleven), before reaching the "splitter weir" where the Widemarsh Brook dives under the footbridge while the former leat that once fed the City Ditch continues ahead over a concrete threshold (Photo twelve)...

Weoher as originally plotted (now Weoher one) uses farm access drives that aren't public rights of way, specifically at Butthouse and at Hill Farm; the route also makes a deliberate diversion to the Nags Head at Canon Pyon, that is now closed....
