Chepstow is, and has been accredited as a Walkers are Welcome town since 2012 and the annual walking festival organised by Chepstow Walkers are Welcome is a celebration of this. It would be fair to say the area is a gateway to walking in Wales and the Lower Wye Valley. The festival offers the walker an extensive programme of guided walks in and around Monmouthshire and the Forest of Dean discovering the hidden and not so hidden gems. The walks will suit most abilities and this year there are a couple of challenging walks for the very fit as well as those that prefer a stroll with a theme. The main objective of the festival is to have fun, enjoy the great outdoors with like-minded people and discover the beautiful diverse landscape and history of this stunning area.
