Overview

Starting at the Lickey Hills Country Park Visitors Centre, we will head towards Cofton old church, sitting in a picturesque location. We follow the Birmingham and Worcester canal past the Bittell Reservoirs. Heading through mature woodland we return to the start point.

At the end of the walk we plan to have lunch at The old Hare and Hounds B45 8UU for those who wish to join us.
