Overview

Starting at Pipers Hill car park, the walk will take us through Hanbury woods which features many ancient trees and managed by Worcestershire Wildlife Trust. The route takes us up to Hanbury church where you will see a mass of snowdrops and other spring flowers. Onwards then towards Hanbury Hall, over farmland and joining the canal for a short while and then back over more farmland and through the woods back to the carpark.

There are several stiles and one being on the slant which makes it  a challenge.  We cross a railway line and walk through a couple of farms so be aware of the hazards that are associated with these places.
