Maintaining 136 miles of footpaths is a huge task and we rely on walkers to help by reporting any problems they find on the ground. The Wye Valley Walk passes through 4 counties (Powys, Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire) and two countries, which can make it confusing to report an issue. Each local authority is responsible for maintaining Public Rights of Way in their area so please report issues to the relevant Public Rights of Way team:
