The long-distance paths
The Offa's Dyke Path, end to end.
Sedbury Cliffs to Prestatyn along the England–Wales border, drawn end to end. Two hundred and ninety-two kilometres that follow an earthwork thrown up twelve centuries ago and never quite abandoned.

What the print holds
The Offa's Dyke Path on paper
Most long paths follow a feature — a coast, a ridge, a river. This one follows a decision, and the print shows that clearly: the line runs almost due north, but it leans and wanders in a way no watershed would, because it is tracking a frontier that was argued over rather than surveyed.
It starts on the Severn estuary, climbs through the Wye gorge above Tintern, and then spends its middle in the border hills, where the dyke itself is most visible on the ground and the line is at its straightest. North of Montgomery it loses the earthwork, crosses the Dee, and finishes over the Clwydian Range to the sea at Prestatyn.
At this scale the Wye's meanders at the southern end are the most striking thing on the sheet — the path leaves the river and rejoins it repeatedly, and the result is a knot of line in the first thirty kilometres and something much calmer afterwards.
It prints portrait, and it is a tall thin object on a wall, which is the right shape for a border. People tend to walk it in two weeks and buy the print because it is the only one of the National Trails that is also a piece of political history.
It also hangs unusually well as a pair with Glyndŵr's Way, which starts and finishes on it — Knighton to Welshpool, an inland loop off the border into mid Wales. Two sheets side by side show the border and the country it separates, and the shared endpoints line up.
What to frame
Each opens the Studio already framed. Change your mind there — the path, or a day of it.
How it works
From the Studio to your wall in three steps.
Step 01
Choose your subject
Connect Strava in one tap for a race, a ride or a whole year. Or search for a place, type a postcode for your street on the old Ordnance Survey, or add a photograph — none of those needs an account.
Step 02
Choose your style
Start from a finished design and make it yours: the words, the colours, the size. Twenty-three styles for your own miles, four treatments for a place, six layouts for a photograph, and the old survey as drawn or in your colours.
Step 03
We print and frame it
Pick a frame, check out, and it is printed to order on fine-art paper, framed by hand and posted to you, tracked.

Good to know
Does the path follow the dyke the whole way?
No, and neither does the print claim to. The earthwork survives in stretches; the National Trail follows it where it can and takes the best available line where it cannot. What is drawn is the waymarked path as it exists today.
Which side of the border am I on?
Both, repeatedly. The path crosses between England and Wales more than twenty times, which is part of why the line looks indecisive at this scale.
Can I print the Clwydians on their own?
Yes. Open the Studio from this page and pull the frame down around the northern hills; the contours come through once the frame is tight enough.
I have not walked the whole thing. Can I still have it?
Yes. The print draws the Offa's Dyke Path itself — the path as it is waymarked, end to end — with or without a walk of your own on it. People buy it before they set off as often as after.
Can it show my own walk instead?
It can show both. Connect Strava and the Studio draws your days along the path — the miles you actually covered over the line as it is mapped, with your time on feet and your climb beneath.
