Overview

We walk through the RSPB reserve, along the Birmingham and Fazeley canal to  our coffee stop at Kingsbury Visitor centre with cafe and toilets. We walk around the lakes and along the river Teme to a lunch spot by the lake with more toilets. Then back along the canal to Middleton Hall.  The walk is flat with no stiles, on good paths and some grass.

We have permission to park in the Middleton Hall car park with a suggested donation of £3, either cash into the honest box or via a QR code.

The entrance to Middleton Hall is off the A4091 Tamworth Road. Looking at a map may suggest approaching from Bodymoor Heath Lane, but there  is usually a barrier stopping access to the Hall car park from that direction, so best to come via the A4091.
