The Shropshire Way is a long distance footpath
that was devised by various Shropshire rambling groups in 1979/80.
The way began in the North of the county, and links with the
Sandstone Trail near Whitchurch, before taking a circular course
south of Shrewsbury.
The route is of 136 miles and includes
highlights such as the castles of Clun and Stokesay, the famous
industrial archaeology site of Ironbridge and the lovely old town
of Ludlow. The walking is magnificent throughout and not too
strenuous.
The Shropshire
Way Series
The Shropshire Way series is a set of caches all
set on or very close to the Shropshire Way. Please feel free to add
to the series - all we ask is you name them in the same format as
the others in the series i.e. 'Wyke - Shropshire Way', use
this background image and have this paragraph at the top of the
cache listing.
This series was inspired by Cape02, in
collaboration with The Pirates of Shropshire, The Bolas Heathens,
and The Shropshire Conquistadors.
Little (!)
Hill
Many people are familiar with the other side of
The Wrekin where the main path goes up, but how many have explored
this side of it? We certainly have not and absolutely loved the
area. It's a lot quieter, with a narrower, but well defined path up
the hill through some lovely woodland.
Rather than put yet another cache on The Wrekin,
we opted to put a cache near to Little Hill, The Wrekin's smaller
sibling. We suggest you park near to the Trailhead and then follow
the signposted Shropshire Way track up into the woods
The
Cache
You are looking for a Regular sized ammo box
full of decent swaps. It's hidden not far from the path up the
hill. After you have found the cache, why not continue to the top
of the hill as it offers some fabulous panoramic views over
Shropshire between the trees.
