Picklescott is
ideally placed for
access to Ride UK
routes and the many
miles of bridleways
which criss-cross
the Long Mynd. Much
of this area is
designated as an
Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty . On a clear day
the Long Mynd offers spectacular
views over the
Wrekin, Lawley Hill,
Caer Caradoc,
the Clees, the
Malverns, the
Stiperstones and the
Welsh Hills.
Within 5 minutes of
leaving the car park
at Picklescott
Village Hall - where
you can park your
trailer or horse box
all day for a modest
contribution to the
Village Hall -
riders can pick up a
Ride UK route which
will take them out
onto the Long Mynd
in under an hour.
Under the umbrella
of the Ride UK
project outline
plans for ten
circular routes have
been compiled with
help from members of
the Long Mynd &
District Bridleways
Association.
The majority of the
proposed routes link
directly with the
Jack Mytton Way Shropshire's premier
long distance
bridleway which
crosses the Long
Mynd and many of the
routes can be linked
with each other.

District Bridleways
Association can be
