Overview

Starting from the Severn Valley Country Park car park (SVCP) at Highley we cross pastures and use tracks for an 8.5 mile walk - lovely open views and the whistle of trains can be heard in the distance.

Waters of Chelmarsh Reservoir come into view on our way to Hampton Loade Station on the Severn Valley Railway, once there we will catch the 14.55 train to Highley, a journey of 3 miles and then return to the cars.

Train fare £5.50.
