Overview

A figure of eight loop walk on the outskirts of and through parts of Shrewsbury through countryside, nature reserves and disused railway line routes. As this is late March, there should be signs of spring. There is a partial viewpoint of an open cast stone quarry en-route.

The route can be muddy in places, especially after rain.
