We are the City of Birmingham Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

WALK DESCRIPTION: Walk Leader Brenda Cameron. The walk is a figure-of-eight about 6.75 miles in total - 4.75 miles before lunch and 2 miles after lunch. It is a mix of field paths, some woodland, a minimal amount of quiet lane, all offering some pleasant views and a brief visit halfway through the morning walk to Waseley Hills Visitor Centre for toilets and a short break. We do not go up the hill on this occasion but, time permitting, stay low for a very short detour along the bottom to see the source of the river Rea – a small fenced off area with a puddle among the scrub. Easy field paths with good views and woodland bring us back to Romsley and our lunch at The Sun. After lunch for those who would like it is a short 2-mile walk in the varied countryside around Hunnington before we return to The Sun.
BOOKING ESSENTIAL, please use the link above for our booking page. Our Wednesday walks include a lunchtime pub stop. Requirements for meals from the pub menu are usually requested and ordered before the start of the walk by the leader. Walkers who prefer to take a picnic lunch are welcome to do so and the leader will have a place designated for this somewhere near the pub, in the village, or in the area where we are stopping for lunch.
