Shropshire’s varied landscapes are a magnet for outdoorsy types, and we’re going to select for you the best walking and hiking the county can offer, and also suggest other enticing activities to get stuck into, on our rivers and canals and up in our hills. And, by the way, for those of you who like getting well off the beaten track, we’ll be singling out lesser-visited alternatives to well-trod honeypots.
What we won’t be offering you are any city breaks, as we don’t have any cities! But we will be helping you get the best out of Shrewsbury, our history-rich county town, on a 48-hour stay, and explain how best to tackle our UNESCO World Heritage Site, Ironbridge Gorge.
