Shropshire is a county criss-crossed by footpaths. The Shropshire Hills provide some amazing places to walk, still relatively unknown, and yet beautiful, varied and majestic.
Here at Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre, we sit at a crossroads of four of the Shropshire Way routes, heading North to Church Stretton, South to Ludlow, West to Clun and East to Much Wenlock. Here you can discover Iron-age hill forts, the majesty of the Long Mynd, the limestone escarpment of Wenlock Edge, ancient villages and market towns.
