Overview

A circular walk, mostly on field footpaths and woodland paths with short sections on quiet country lanes. The route takes us from the historic village of Upton Magna towards Haughmond Hill with views of the Wrekin and Caer Caradoc, then up the hill via a steep incline, through woods along part of the Shropshire Way and back through the arable fields around Hunkington. There are no stiles, but it may be muddy in places. There will be one stop for coffee and one for lunch.
