Clee Hills


Scenic beauty
Birmingham, Shropshire DY3
United Kingdom
This is beautiful Shropshire hill country to the east of Ludlow - a market town well worth a visit in itself - and a short drive from Birmingham. The hills have long been popular with day trippers from the city and there are lots of pleasant walks. The highest hill, Brown Clee, stands at 1,772 feet above sea level. There is a tourist information point at Clee Hill itself, on the A4117 at Cleobury Mortimer, and at Ludlow.

Clent Hills


Natural beauty
Clent Hills
Birmingham, Worcestershire DY8
United Kingdom
+44 1384 81 2830
A renowned area of scenic beauty, the Clent Hills have long been popular with city people and cover a total of 443 acres. There are pleasant walks marked out, including an ascent of Clent Hill itself which offers fine views of the Black Country and Worcestershire countryside. Once at the top, there is a folly known as the "Four Stones" and a toposcope erected to help walkers identify features on the horizon. The hills are easy to reach by car, and are about 15 miles south-west of Birmingham.

Kinver Edge


Walking country
Comber
Kinver, nr. Stourbridge
Birmingham, Worcestershire DY7 6HU
United Kingdom
+44 1384 87 2418
Kinver Edge is a sandstone ridge covered in heathland, from which there are views across Shropshire and the West Midlands. Curiosities include the "rock houses" in which people lived until the 1950s. One of these was rebuilt for tenants in the early 1990s, but it is not open to the public. The views and the scenery are open at any time, and are free. This place of outstanding natural beauty is situated about 15 miles west of Birmingham.
