Overview

The walk takes us along the Stratford canal to Austey Wood. There is a steady climb to the top of the wood and then a descent to Cutlers Farm with great views. Pleasant walk through fields and then through Knowle Wood and arriving back at Cutlers Farm. The rest of the walk is through fields and quiet country lanes until we get back on the Stratford canal and retrace our steps to the start point. Joint walk with Sandwell Ramblers and Wolverhampton Ramblers.
