Overview

A figure of 8 walk with the option to walk 7 or 10 miles. We start with an ascent via Ribbesford Church onto the Worcestershire Way before descending to the River Severn and walking along this to Stourport. This side of the river is a bit overgrown in parts and there are a number of fallen trees to clamber over or go under! The second part of the walk takes us back on the other side of the river to the start. 

There is then the option of continuing onto the heathland of the nature reserve and walking around this passing under the Severn Valley railway to return to the start

Please bring a drink and snack for a mid morning break plus a packed lunch
