Overview

Join us for a circular walk starting at Coalbrookdale, going through Loamhole Dingle to Jiggers Bank and on up to Lightmoor. We pass the Lightmoor Nature Reserve and walk through coppices and Rough Park to Ironbridge.

There are stunning views across the Severn Valley to the Stretton Hills as we make our way up Strethill and we return to Coalbrookdale along the famous Rope Walk.
