- My perfect hill has rocky crags, great views and a sense of solitude. Bonus points for hill-forts, caves and deer. Minus points for mud, crowds and litter.
Knowing (intimately) all 130 of Shropshire's hills, here are my 10 favorites.
Great film and soundtrack :-)
Much appreciate your kind words.
Top soundtrack 👌
i guess I'm quite off topic but does anyone know a good place to stream newly released tv shows online?
So many beautiful hills to pick from. We are spoilt for choice in Shropshire.
We are blessed. A hill-walking paradise.
Paradise indeed.
Great choices. Thanks so much for a beautiful film
Great stuff
You're welcome 😊
A great montage.
Good selection
Liking this a lot.
Excellent video. Provides a really helpful overview for someone looking to check out those hills for the first time. I’ll certainly consider some of these when I manage to make it over that way 👍
Thanks for your appreciation. Great hill walking awaits you. Hopefully Covid lockdowns will be a thing of the past soon.
I'm actually up in Shropshire this week. Not much time to walk or mountain bike unfortunately as I'm looking at property :-( Only manged one bike ride at Hopton Wood and two walks so far : Mortimer Forest (Herefordshire) and Sliperstones (which I loved, although the missus moaned about rocks on her ankles all the way :-) ). But I have a few days left so thanks for the tips.
The paths on the Stiperstones can be quite challenging.
i love the woods.
Woodlands are great 👍
Excellent video - Really enjoyed it thanks. I'd put in a vote for Ragleth Hill from Church Stretton for maximum view for minimum effort.
Ragleth was a close thing to include in the top ten... for me the steep southern approach is the highlight of the hill... but I felt like The Lawley just edged it out. Ragleth is definitely in the top 20 though, as would be Cefn Hepreas... you've got to go there, simply delectable views. Gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.
I like Ragleth too..
Absolutely awesome Mon
Thanks! 👍
Nice choices. Good music too.
There were some difficult decisions, I can tell you!
The Lawley should be in there IMO
Music is very appropriate 👌
@@andyfisher2782 There was only space for 10. The Lawley and Ragleth Hill were very close to getting in the top 10.
C'est réellement superb ! I love it. Seems like massif central or morvan mountains in France. But more beautiful ! I love Shropshire blue cheese too ♡ greetings...
Thank you very much.
Great montage. Thanks 😊.
You're welcome.
It's brilliant 👏 👌
Shropshire Hills are such a beautiful peaceful place to be, thanks for the video
My pleasure!
nice film thanks for sharing
My pleasure!
A lot of this is personal opinion... but your judgement seems spot on.
Thanks for your support. I have walked all of the walkable Shropshire hills. But everyone has their own idea of beauty.
Lovely. nice county too.
Thanks for the comment.
Stunning. Love Shropshire! Been there a couple of times already. Ludlow, Wroxeter, Shrewsbury, Gorge area and I went to Stretton. My paternal grandmothers surname was Stretton and I am drawn to that name because it is English.
Simply superb.
Thanks Caroline.
Awesome levels of beauty ❤ 😍 👌
SUPERB ..... thanks for the excellent uploads .... i thought i had explored everywhere .... until !!!! Cheers from Newquay.
Very nice video, I walked up Earls hill and pontesford last weekend, then did Nesclife, all after watching your videos.New hills for me. I thought I had done a lot of walking in Shropshire but after watching your videos I have a lot more to do.keep it up
Personally speaking, I love the variety of hill walking in Shropshire. I'd much prefer to seek out new ones than keep going back to the same few.
It certainly makes me feel like I know Shropshire much much better.
good selection. every one deserved it's place. i know my favourite.
What's your favourite hill Gary?
@@shropshirehillwalks5343 in shropshire, The Lawley. North ridge is my favourite, as the views just get better and better. Love the Crow at the Summit. South ridge is good too, but as it's steeper you get your head down and only get the pleasure as you near the summit. I have a soft spot for Helmith hill too.
Very nice!
.... and you've managed to find out Caer Caradoc (South)
Caer Caradoc is so good it gets in twice! 😀
I'm surprised how many of them I've done and how many I haven't heard of!
The cave at the end was where King Caractacus hid out from the Romans and planned his war
Absolutely awesome. Agree with most choices. A couple I haven't yet done.
Which ones haven't you done yet?
Earl's Hill and Hope Bowdler
Oh... and Yearlet.
@@andyfisher2782 very few people have done Paulith Bank. Well done on bagging that one.
Shropshire my ancestors came from there but sadly died from chlls. One made it and moved to Guildford and got married and had three lovely girls
I once knew a girl from Surrey
Her diet made everyone worry
The only food on her plate
That she'd highly rate
Was a spicy Shropshire curry
You will know Nipstone rock. Did you ever notice where the dwelling sat at the back of Nipstone rock
No. I didnt notice a dwelling there...
What's the story?
@@shropshirehillwalks5343 There is no story. It's just an observation.If you have any images of the back of Nipstone rock predominatly on the second rock up you can see the triangular shape carved into the rock. On the first rock it is less distinctive but it is there with what I believe to be smoke marks on the wall. How old they are is a question. A few hundred yards away is Ritton Castle before it was a castle it was an iron age settlement. I love the Shropshire hills steeped in history and folklore
Ay shooms
My curiosity has got the better of me...
What does "Ay shooms" mean? Is it a Scottish expression?
Dreadful music. It's so incongruous with the tranquillity and beauty of these hills.
