Came from NE, muddy path at the start on to a grassy path to the top, nice views of Long Mynd. Went with Dad. | speedyclimber | 02/01/2022 |
An afternoon walk in the Shropshire hills centered on Church Stretton. A bright and breezy day, butties washed down with Irn Bru and wonderful views all around; just wish I'd done it south-to-north when coming down the steep slope on the south side! | JOHNS | 25/11/2021 |
Walk up from the Lay-by. Steep walk to the summit and back | M6KIO | 15/08/2021 |
Beautiful 10.3 mile 2995ft of ascent walk from NT car park at Carding Mill Valley m(free for members - alternatively £4 per day in Church Stretton centre). Carding Mill Valley taking the east fork following the Jack Myton Way, Pole Bank, descent to Little Stretton along the ridge and easily bagging Grindle and Callow along the way, then Ragleth Hill and return through Church Stretton. This route includes a significant part of the Stretton Skyline Walk. After a coffee break at the NT cafe took the car to the car perk near Yearlet for a pleasant and easy ascent of the final hill within the area encompassed by this circuit. | ijpowell | 27/05/2021 |

From junction ENE with limited parking. You could do this in your slippers. But not in today's wind and rain. Proper hill- went right to end with strange pole sticking up for best views. | Mark Sims | 22/02/2020 |

Parked at end of track to the Hazler Hill mast. A stroll along the lane passing the hedge clipped into the shape of pigs heads. From here a track then grassy path rises to the summit ridge. Only the sheep left up here now. Summit the pole in the fading light. Impressive views. | briandavies | 20/09/2017 |

6/9 (The Lawley/Caer Cradoc/Hope Bowdler Hill/Hill End/Hazler Hill/Ragleth Hill/Earl's Hill/Upper Park/Y Golfa) | Fergalh | 06/05/2017 |
On an excellent walk taking a leisurely 5h.: Little Stretton- Ragleth Hill- Hazler Side- Gaer Stone- Hope Bowdler Hill, then via Cwms to the previously visited Caer Caradoc and down to Church Stretton via the Three Fingers Ridge (some path erosion at foot). The popularity is inevitable, these are unwaveringly interesting and good walking, short green turf on old green hills in spring sunshine (I forgot they were supposed to be blue today) | pwheeler | 03/05/2017 |
With K. Another fine hill | Ashley | 15/04/2017 |
Long Mynd, Grindle, Callow, Ragleth Hill, Hazler Hill, Helmeth Hill, Caer Caradoc Hill | keithouk | 06/04/2017 |
