Overview

This 10 miles walk on the North side of Cannock Chase takes us to the Staffordshire Wildlife Trust at Wolseley where there is café and toilets and benches around the wildlife pool where we can eat sandwiches. Afterwards we return via the Trent and Mersey Canal, leaving that to pass through Shugborough Hall Park on the Staffordshire Way and return to the car park. Walk leaders Caroline L. and Alison.
