Overview

I'm sure most of you know the Wrekin by now... its an oldie but a classic evening ramble! We will start off from the base of the main track and veer off the main path at the halfway house, walking through the trees to reach the top. This is a steady climb and good footwear is recommended. Please dress accordingly for the weather and bring water etc.
