Wellington Walkers are Welcome have been heavily involved in the creation of a new 50-mile trail to mark Telford’s 50th Anniversary. They are pleased to announce that the trail will be opened on June 16th by Walkers are Welcome patron Kate Ashbrook.
On that day the trail will be walked in its entirety by the local LDWA group and run as a relay by Telford Harriers . Various sections will be walked by others, including Telford and East Shropshire Ramblers and Walking for Health, Telford and Wrekin.
The trail links many of Telford’s green spaces and is mainly off road on footpaths, bridleways and multi-user routes. It includes The Wrekin and the Ironbridge Gorge, as well as lesser known areas. See www.telfordt5050miletrail.org.uk
