Overview

We will start in Church Stretton and climb up Caer Caradoc. The ascent is fairly steep but well worth it for the sweeping views of the surrounding hills. We will pause at the Iron Age hill fort at the top to catch our breath, have a snack and enjoy the views.  We will then descend along the ridge of the hill, past the finger rocks and back down into the valley. This is a moderate walk with a fair amount of ascent but we will take our time climbing up and down and go at the pace of the group.

Hiking boots are recommended for this walk.

Car shares can be arranged by using our WhatsApp car share groups.  The meeting point is also accessible via train.

Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a lead for most of the walk due to sheep grazing. Please let the walk leader know if you plan to bring your dog.

Please contact the walk leader via WhatsApp or text  to book onto this walk.
