Millers Dale
Further up the the River Wye lies the River Wye is pretty Millers Dale. This walk heads west to Chee Dale and then takes in a section of the Monsal Trail. Monsal Head is in the opposite direction of this walk, so you would simply head east on the Monsal Trail, in a straight journey there and back.
