The Rising Sun public house in Woodcroft closed in 2011 and was due to become apartments. However, some 250 local residents have raised money and the Rising Sun re-opened in October, 2022. The plan is to make the Rising Sun a community hub offering a place for local people and groups to meet. The walk leaves Chepstow, crosses the River Wye, and ascends through Tutshill, following the long distance Offa’s Dyke Path. A diversion down the Lancaut Walk is taken before returning to rejoin Offa’s Dyke Path to Wintour’s Leap. After crossing Coleford Road, B4228, footpaths and roads are taken through Woodcroft and Tutshill to recross the river and return to the starting point. About 5 miles.
