Overview

This walk is mainly through woodland and meadows with some moderate ascents and descents, mostly stepped. The initial route takes us through Lloyd`s Coppice and two local nature reserves before climbing steeply to The Rotunda with good views across the gorge. After lunch in Coalbrookdale, we walk a fairly flat return route along Rough Park Way and The Silkin Way.

There will be a short drinks stop and a slightly longer lunch stop - so remember to bring a drink and a packed lunch.

This a joint walk with Sandwell Ramblers.
