The Wye Valley Walk is marked out by circular yellow [[waymark]] arrows, [[finger post]]s, and signs showing the path's [[logo]], a leaping [[salmon]].  Most of the route follows [[Rights of way in England and Wales|Public Rights of Way]]. Some parts are [[Rights of way in England and Wales#Permissive path|permissive paths]] where owners have agreed for them to be used.  Parts of Plynlimon are open countryside in which there is a [[right to roam]] established by the [[Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000]].<ref name=essentials>[http://www.wyevalleywalk.org/content.php?nID=12  The Wye Valley Walk: The essentials].
