This is a free sample walk but you need to log in as a member of Walkingworld to access the details. Join or log in above if you are already a member.

This is a short, circular walk mainly in mature woodland and using part of Offa's Dyke National Trail. It is on good tracks and is easy to follow. The walk itself has few views, but the open ground at the start offers outstanding views across the Severn Plain, with most of the Shropshire hills in sight.

This walk features in the 'Pathways' book - for more information click on the link on the Walkingworld homepage.

Thanks Jim! A perfect walk in lovely woodland on a warm early autumn afternoon. Offas Dyke and the Racecourse were both interesting features and Brough enjoyed meeting lots of other dogs. We stayed at the Pen y Dryffen hotel, both hotel and walk highly recommended.
