It is a two mile walk around the walls but it is well worth doing if you are feeling fit! There are quite a few flights of steps to go up and down as you go around the walls. You do get some interesting views over Chester. In some places, the walk comes down to street level and it is not always immediately obvious which way to go. Look for maps that allow you to orient yourself as to which way to go and where you are on the wall.

Lovely and gentle walk around the city walls. Always something to see and time to stop and look, benches periodically and the autumn colours were lovely. Many points of interest along the way and lots of places to "get down" and explore the town or have a coffee. I would recommend this for everyone.

Have walked the city walls twice during October, while the weather was quite nice. There are several information plaques along the way, with interesting history about the various parts. Good views of the city, and across to North Wales (from certain points). The walls can be accessed from different places, but I normally start from the Cathedral Bell Tower, and walk round past the race course, past the castle, and down to the river, and then back along the walls, and end up by the clock tower. It takes about just over 1 hour, depending how fast you walk. I never get tired of this, as it is a lovely way to see the walls and the city.

What a fantastic walk around the city walls of Chester,takes about an hour or so and plenty to see. The Roman gardens were especially good.The city itself is lovely plenty to do eat,drink etc. A must visit is the Cathedral also just beautiful.

It's a bit of a long walk around the city walls but it's worth doing. We went from gate to gate and ended up at the amphitheatre. Walking along the River Dee was wonderful even later in the dark.

The walls encircle a substantial portion of the city with plenty of access points - mostly steps up along with additional steps across some of the gates, but with some sections being more accessible. Appears to be some excellent work being done on restoration of parts that have fallen into disrepair. Make a great circular walk, or with a £1.50 Walkabout map and guide from tourist information, enable a self guided tour through many interesting sites. These include some that were very quiet and appear to be off the beaten track such as cobbled St Mary’s Hill

The walls are well worth a visit but it is really sad to see that CWAC have let the city fall into such sad state .The Roman Gardens haven’t been weeded or tidied for years ,the riverside walk is also covered with weeds and all the benches need refurbishing ! Then there are so many shut up shops ,and the area area near the new Homebase is full of tatty eateries ! This is our county town it is a heritage site and it deserves better than this .We all know councils are underfunded but it is about time CWAC prioritised thus jewel of the north before it is too late

Been to Chester on many occasions so don’t know why we haven’t walked round the walls before but so glad we did ! Provides a different perspective with some fantastic views of the city & its architecture. Can be a little hard on the knees at times but well worth it !

First time walking round the full route for the walls after visiting Chester many, many times over the years. Last time I walked on them I was at primary school and I’m now 68! We did this for my birthday in January when we stayed for a couple of days. Our Chester visits usually consist of a short trip to the shops by train from Liverpool so it was lovely to spend quality time in Chester. While walking the walls we witnessed a school party being marched around by a Roman legionnaire, I’ve never seen children so well behaved 😂, my husband and I were terrified 😂. It’s a lovely walk and you get a real feel of the history Chester is seeped in. Well worth it

When you visit Chester, you have to do the city walls walk. It's a great walk as the walls encircle the whole town and there are many interesting places to see and visit on the two mile route. It's well worth doing.
