- **Event Name**: Stiperstones - Shropshire Hills - 10 miles
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 07 Feb, 2026 at 09:00 am – Sat, 07 Feb, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The Stiperstones are a striking ridge of jagged quartzite rock outcrops in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty — some of the most distinctive scenery in England.

Tickets for this event cost £15.00. This payment is non-refundable. It will only be refunded in the event of a non-weather related cancellation. *Tickets/spaces for this walk/event are pre booked and pre paid, please don't just turn up on the day with cash*.

The quartzite tors have names like Devil’s Chair, Manstone Rock, Cranberry Rock and Shepherd’s Rock, and many walkers climb and explore them for wild scenery and panoramic views across the Shropshire countryside and, on clear days, into Wales.

The area is also ecologically important — it’s part of a National Nature Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) with heathland and upland wildlife, including grouse, curlew and peregrine falcon. 

There’s a rich tradition of folklore and legend attached to the stones — including tales about the Devil and spectres roaming the ridge — which adds to the atmospheric feel of the walk.

Other highlights inclue the Bog Mine Visitor Centre (this free car park is where we will be leaving our cars).

Located at The Bog, just west of the Stiperstones, the Bog &amp; Mine Visitor Centre sits in what was once the schoolhouse of a bustling Victorian mining village. The area was heavily mined for lead and barytes from at least the 18th century up to the early 20th century, taking advantage of the mineral veins in the local rocks.

Please dress accordingly. This walk will be in February on exposed hilly terrain in parts. So bring lots of layers and poles if you have them.

Expect over 2,000 ft of elevation on this hike, so good level of fitness required.

Bring enough food/snacks and water to sustain you, we will have a break half way round.
