The Shropshire Hills is a nationally important landscape. The hills, rolling farmland, woods and river valleys of this varied and special landscape are rich in geology and wildlife and ingrained with heritage. Off the beaten track and tranquil, this is a living, working place, loved by locals and visitors alike for its quality of environment, for walking and outdoor activities and for relaxation and inspiration.

We stayed in Shifnal, and visited Shrewsbury, Ironbridge and Ludlow. Everyone we spoke to, from parking attendants, bar staff, and cafe workers were so friendly and helpful. They were so proud of where they lived and wanted to share the very best with us. Such lovely people, such beautiful countryside. A really great break away.

My wife talked me into this walk. If you want to park close, there's a track coming out of a sharp bend in the village of Willstone (488,953 on OS217). Only space for 4 or 5 cars and it's a rough track. Anyway, the summit is a very easy walk from there but stilll takes in some spectacular scenery. We were very lucky to see 3 pairs of Kestrels playing on the wind. Lots of fungi as well being mid September. It was a clear day and the views from the summit were everything you've heard. Stunning! Recommend you take a pair of binoculars to make out details across the valley to Carding Mill Valley and beyond. We'd intended to walk off to the south and then pick up the track back to the car but having got to the track in good time and feeling envigorated, we opted for a climb up to Willstone hill and the Battlestones there. Again, a lovely walk but my wife insisted that we not take the direct descent and instead find the footpath further on.... Needless to say that was a mistake and we ended up wading through the chest high bracken that someone else reported! On the plus side, we did find the biggest Parasol mushrooms we've ever seen! Back to the track and the car and I'm grateful we didn't park in Cardington. Just under 6 miles which was enough for an out-of-shape near pensioner. As it was luchtime, we repaired to the excellent Royal Oak in Cardington which I can heartily recommend. Great day out!

Amazing place, highly recommend. We enjoyed the family VIP experience with head keeper Ryan, who made the day out one of our best family trips ever! He was extremely knowledgeable, great fun and fantastic with the animals. Great to see so many beautiful animals so happy and healthy.

Our visitors' centre and gift shop are the ideal places to start your visit. Join a trail through the woodland and birds are soon all around you. You can see and hear pied flycatchers and redstarts, while dippers nest by the lake, and above you ravens, buzzards and peregrines soar in the skies. There's plenty for children including nestbox and animal trails, and a wild playground.

It is lovely area to visit with plenty of walking and cycling tracks in an area which has outstanding beauty mixed with the marvels of engineering which are a necessity. There is quite a lot to see here so allow a few hours and don't forget to visit the cafe and the visitor centre

Having known A E Housman's cycle of poems "A Shropshire Lad" since I was at school (in the 1960s) I had long wanted to visit the Clee Hills - and see those "blue remembered hills" for myself. I was not disappointed - a fantastic view.
