This month we’ll be exploring the southern end of the Long Mynd (don’t worry I have done a recce).  As far as I can remember, we haven’t visited this area before. It will involve a strenuous 8-9 mile walk including a steep ascent up to the Midland Gliding Club which will give us magnificent views towards the Stiperstones.  This is followed by a beautiful descent down Minton Batch.  Another steep ascent takes us up to the Knolls followed by a gentle downhill stretch through the plantation to Priors Holt.  We will then return to our start point at a lower level along an easier path through the Rabbit Warren.
