Amazing views from up here, just wow!!

A nature reserve cared for by Shropshire Wildlife Trust, The Ercall is home to much more than first meets the eye. Ripples visible in the surface of rocks in this fascinating old quarry were carved by ancient seas 500 million years ago when this part of Britain lay 60 degrees south of the equator. Visit in late spring and early summer to hear birdsong echoing from the walls and run on trails edged with bluebells, birdsfoot trefoil and wild orchids. A staggering 821 different invertebrate species were once found here during a single survey.

Rising to 407 metres, The Wrekin is a prominent landmark, its visibility from the M54 signalling the entrance to Shropshire. Unlike some of the local hills, The Wrekin was never a volcano in its own right, despite its conical shape, but is composed of various igneous rocks and volcanic processes. The ridgeline either side of The Wrekin makes for some great running, with fabulous views in every direction.

Absoluty for those who like natural trails

Run to this pool and get muddy shoes 😂

Stunning view and west part of Hills

From top nice view on Telford, Shrewsbury and Shropshire Hills

There is a beautiful trig pointed summit to the Wrekin hill. It has commanding views of the surrounding countryside and is a very busy location being the highest hill in the area.

The Wrekin boasts some of the best views over Shropshire. It's a fairly difficult hill to climb but great for fitness & if you take your time anyone can make it. Catch it at sunrise or sunset & it truly is a magical place. Personally it's my favourite place in the world.

Take time to walk south from the trig for more great views

If you want to lengthen the walk and / or add another hill — come over Ercall Hill on the Wellington side . Not the clear views from the Wrekin but it gets your lungs moving ...

The wooded ridge of the Wrekin rises south of Wellington as a well-known landmark. Offering fantastic views, a challenging but manageable climb and beautiful natural surroundings close to town, it is understandably popular. The Wrekin can also be reached by a longer walk from Wellington through the Ercall woods, or from Little Wenlock or Ironbridge. The lanes on the south side of the Wrekin are small and parking is extremely limited. This does however mean that these roads are quiet and good to walk or cycle – the Shropshire Way approaches the south of the Wrekin from Little Wenlock along Spout Lane. To the north of the Wrekin is the smaller wooded hill of the Ercall and the extensive Limekiln Woods. Walking  The main path up from the Forest Glen is well surfaced and easy to follow. It turns sharp right at one point and then back left near the Halfway House, before rising to the open ground near the top of the hill. The route is just over a mile each way. There are quieter public footpaths leading around the hill and a couple of permissive paths which join them. The Wrekin can be climbed or walked around as part of longer walks from the surrounding area

A 'little mountain' in Shropshire, it dominates the surrounding countryside. The shortest walk to the summit from the forest glen car park is very well marked. The start of the trail is the steepest section so may be worth pacing yourself unless you're fitter than I am. The summit itself has spectacular views in good weather. It's also the site of an Iron Age hill fort. There's a common local saying 'round the Wrekin' meaning to take the long way round... something I quite like doing when out walking.
