Overview

A 5.5 circular walk from Hopesgate to Bromlow Callow, skirting Gorsty Bank, Rorrington Hill and Castle Ring. 

A good all-rounder with mixed terrain, including open fields, hill climbs, woodland and sweeping views of the Shropshire Hills and their historic and industrial heritage.

Our walk finishes near The Stables Inn, an old Drovers' Inn perched high in the Shropshire hills, which dates back to 1680. With a roaring fire and inherent charm, it is an essential port of call.

I plan to have a Sunday Roast here following the walk (menu linked above). Let me know if you would like to join me for food when signing up; I will take numbers and make a reservation accordingly.
