Waseley Hills Country Park
There are two clearly marked walks here: the Fox Trail (1.5 hours) makes a circuit of the whole park with orange markers, and the Badger Trail (30-40 minutes and purple markers) which gives magnificent views of the Black Country and Worcestershire.
Both trails are marked from the visitor centre, and leaflets are also available at 25p which describe the route and interesting detail about the area.
Clear open landscape to enjoy here, including the source of the River Rea.
If the trails are busy, there is plenty of room to roam around here – but don't miss the truly sensational views from the top of the hill.
