The Shropshire 3 Peaks Challenge



One of our latest collaborations with tourism organisation 'Visit Shropshire' who were looking to create three brand new family-friendly circular walks in the county.

The walks cover three notable peaks in the county: Stiperstones, Brown Clee Hill and Clun Black Hill. Each walk has been designed with ease of parking, access to nearby facilities (where possible) and a simple but clear route in mind and each are around 4-5 miles in length with 'shortcut' options or additional sections to help you tailor the walking experience that's right for you or your family.

As ever, each walk also features a bespoke illustration and some supporting information highlighting a feature seen on the walk as well as a free .GPX version of the route should you wish to load it into your favourite nav software such as the O/S app or Viewranger. These walks are the first to incorporate our new interactive features too which allow users on data-enabled devices (phones etc) to click on key elements within the maps to find out more information if there's coverage.

“Point2 Guides’ 3 new interactive Shropshire walking routes commissioned for us have resulted in an extremely high uptake from both visitors and locals. The route sheets allowed walkers of all abilities to develop their Shropshire walking knowledge. We would highly recommend Point2 Guides and look forward to developing further routes with them in the future..”
