Overview

After crossing the A49, we walk through a residential area of town before climbing Hope Bowdler Hill, steeply at first but not too strenuous. Weather permitting, we should have lovely views as we continue along the ridge before dropping down to Cardington. We return to Church Stretton on a lower path between Caer Caradoc and Hope Bowdler Hill.
