Overview

A moderately hilly amble from The Bog to Mucklewick Hill and back via the lower slopes on the west side of Stiperstones, Pennerley, Shelve Pool and the Nipstone. If the current Met Office weather forecasts are accurate, we should be able to enjoy great views from Mucklewick Hill over Stapeley Hill and Corndon into Wales and back towards the Stiperstones without too much mud underfoot.

Refreshments will be available at The Bog Visitor Centre cafe at the end of the walk. All welcome.

Meet at The Bog car park in time to start walking at 10 o'clock. We will have two stops around 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock so bring your flask and sandwiches.

Some paths at either end of the walk are stony and uneven, and the ground in the middle of the walk will probably still be muddy and uneven, so walking boots with ankle support are highly recommended.
