Series 6: 1. Holy Mountain and the Holy Well



Weatherman Derek Brockway shows that west is not always best where walking is concerned, with two wonderful treks a stone's throw from the English border. \n\nIn the first walk, Derek takes to the hills overlooking Abergavenny where he scales the Skirrid, an accessible hill that feels like a proper mountain. He then heads to Holywell where he takes a dip in St Winifride's Well, and on down the Greenfield Valley to the coastal path along the Dee Estuary, finishing at Flint Castle.
