The Wye Valley is a valley along the border of Wales and England, carved by the River Wye, the fourth-longest river in the United Kingdom, as it runs from the Cambrian Mountains through Hereford to the Severn Estuary at Chepstow. Its lower stretch, a 72-kilometer length of the river prized for limestone gorge scenery and dense native woodland, is protected as the Wye Valley National Landscape, formerly an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, covering 326 square kilometers across Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Monmouthshire.
