Overview

Starting from Alvechurch train station we head (mostly uphill) to the Lickey hills via Barnt green.

Lunch near the lickey hills visitor centre where there is indoor and outdoor seating and toilets. Please note there is no cafe so bring your own lunch, and if the weather is good it will be busy so bring a mat to sit on.

We'll head back to Alvechurch via Barnt green sailing club and the canal.

Option for a drink in one of the local pubs at the end.
