Wellbeing trail at Haughmond Hill

Spending time amongst the trees and really noticing nature is scientifically proven to boost our mental and physical health. Follow the trail to take a mindful walk through the forest that invites you to really relax.

What to expect

Themed panels along the trail will invite you to pause, notice and connect with the forest environment around you.

A forest wellbeing journal is also available to help you get even more benefit from the experience, offering additional mindful things to do while you’re out in the forest and at home.

Download your forest wellbeing journal before you visit.

About the route

The wellbeing trail will follow our red walking trail, Henry's Hike. This circular walk takes you across the central plateau of the hill taking in views of the Wrekin to the east. 

The trail is 2.5km (1.5 miles) and starts/ends from the car park. There are some sections which are rocky and uneven and can get muddy especially after rain.

This trail is supported by Sport England using National Lottery funding.
