We are the Wolverhampton Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

These southernmost hills of the Pennines offer a grand panorama across the north Midlands. This area of estates, hamlets and farmland was used by George Eliot in her Victorian novel Adam Bede; paths wind through a bucolic country very little changed.
Mainly moderate undulating countryside with lovely views all round with a short steep descent from one of the Weaver Hills - well worth the journey.
There will be a short drinks stop and a slightly longer lunch stop - so remember to bring a drink and a packed lunch.
This is a joint walk with Walsall Ramblers and Sandwell Ramblers.
Personal medication, e.g. asthma inhalers and angina sprays, must be carried by the walkers themselves. All walkers should carry an ICE card or a contact number in case of emergency.
Do make sure you're fit enough and have the right footwear and clothing for weather conditions and the walk you want to do. You can contact the group or leader if in doubt. Non-members of the Ramblers Association are welcome to join us on a couple of walks before deciding whether to join the group.
Dove Street (B5033) Ellastone where there is roadside parking after the houses towards and over the bridge that crosses the River Dove. Dove Street is on the right shortly after passing the 'Ellastone’ road sign when travelling along B5032 towards Ashbourne.
