Overview

A circular walk which explores the area around the Shropshire village of Pontesbury. The waymarked trail will take you through attractive countryside and woodland with some excellent views from the hill tops. The walk was created in memory of Chris Bagley who inspired the regeneration of the local rights of way network. We pass through the villages of Habberley and Longden. Joint walk with Sandwell Ramblers.
