The temperatures might be cooler and the days shorter, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get out and about and have fantastic new experiences. In fact, autumn might be the best time to experience Shropshire. With spectacular scenery, delicious seasonal food and drink and outdoor adventures, there are so many great reasons why Shropshire needs to be your Autumn 2022 destination.
1. The incredible autumn colours
There’s nowhere lovelier than the Shropshire countryside in autumn. As the woodland leaves change from green to a palette of oranges, crimsons and scarlets. Whether you’re looking for beautiful hikes, relaxing gentle strolls or the next spot for a big family outing, you can find it all here. Don’t miss Autumn 2022 in Shropshire – book your stay!
2. Refreshing walks and bike rides
With misty mornings, crisp autumnal air and hazy sunshine, outdoor activities at this time of year are as good as, if not better, than during the summer. Enjoy great local walks through ever-changing landscapes! Alternatively, plan a two-wheeled adventure with hundreds of cycle routes to choose from.
If the weather takes a turn for the worse, don’t worry because…
3. Cosy pubs
It’s no secret that Shropshire is famously talented at two things in particular – food and beer!
Shropshire’s strong farming heritage naturally attracts talented chefs with field to fork mentalities. All of which produce the outstanding food on your plate all year round. Coupled with our incredible breweries (one of which is the oldest in Britain) you’re all set for a beautiful meal.
Take those two specialities and add in roaring fires, low ceilings and atmospheric surroundings – that’s a Shropshire pub!
4. Award-winning attractions
Whether you’re looking for family fun, cultural sights or autumnal outdoor adventures, see the area’s amazing attractions in a fresh light this Autumn. Wander through a time gone by at Blists Hill Victorian Town, ride through the Shropshire hills on the Severn Valley Railway and come face to face with your favourite exotic animals at Telford Exotic Zoo.
You’ll find plenty of things to do both inside and out for half term or a fun-filled break.
