This 19-mile (31 km) limestone escarpment stretches from Much Wenlock in the north east to Craven Arms in the south west of Shropshire. There are sprawling woodlands on the slopes of the Edge and plentiful walking, cycling and horse riding trails to enjoy. One of the Midlands most amazing natural features, the escarpment is also an important geological feature for scientific research.
