Overview

Led by Mike J and Bob,  this is a circular walk around Cannon Hill Park, Highbury Park and Kings Heath park and finishing mid afternoon at the Museum of Geology on the Birmingham University campus, where you can either return by train or spend some time in the museum which is well worth seeing (free admission). Bring packed lunch. Note: if you have a West Midlands travel concessionary pass, you only need to buy a rail ticket as far as Moor St as New St departures are after 9.30.
