We are Coalville Ramblers - a friendly group based in the heart of the National Forest. We offer a programme of 3 walks each week, from 5 miles to 10 plus.
Andrew H.
Join Andy on this extended walk around Cannock Chase. This will be the alternative walk to the one already published and being led by John Boodle. Andy's walk will be around 9.5 miles for the more adventurous but the start and meeting point will be same spot. Following the canal through Cannock Chase the walk makes its way to Shugborough Hall where lunch will be taken. The return will be by the Staffordshire Way.
Toilets and cafe at Shugborough Hall
Cannock Chase is a designated National landscape and covers an area of 30.5 square miles. Walkways and cycle tracks cover a large area with a visitor centre and cafes. In 1964 a cemetery (Soldatenfriedhof) was chosen to bury the vast majority of German servicemen who died in Britain during both world wars. This was because the landscape was very similar to vast areas of Germany. Shugborough hall is a National Trust Georgian mansion within a walled Garden.
