Things to do in the Shropshire Hills


There are so many things to do that people who know the Shropshire Hills keep coming back. Whether your passion is fine food, delightful drink, wonderful walking, historical heritage or scintillating cycling, the Shropshire Hills are up there with the very best.

And there may be some ideas to surprise you – cycling round six breweries and a vineyard while your luggage and shopping is transported; stealing a dip in a quiet pool in the hills; even flying from England’s highest airstrip. The Shropshire Hills truly are full of surprises!
