Details

Description:The summit of The Wrekin is open grassland with fragments of heathland. Below is a mixed forest of deciduous and coniferous trees which includes lovely oak woodland on the north side. The forest is quite runnable and can be traversed by contouring (particularly higher up) where it is steepest, through re-entrants, rock outcrops and numerous charcoal burning platforms. Some of the plantations lower down have brambles which are not likely to be passable in May.
