We are the City of Birmingham Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Birmingham Ramblers Enquiries
Starting from Barnt Green station this walk climbs gently to the visitor centre. From there, keeping our height, it crosses to Beacon Hill with views of Birmingham and a short break weather permitting. After that the route descends to the golf tea rooms before climbing up gradually via orchards to the visitor centre again. And then it is all downhill to Barnt Green Station! Please note: the Visitor Centre has no catering facilities. You can top up water bottles and there are toilets. The Golf course cafe serves hot drinks and snacks and also has toilet facilities. If we have time, we’ll take a tea break there. Please bring your lunch and water/drinks for the day and suitable winter clothing. Distance 5 miles with approximately 900ft climb in total.
