The Lugg Valley Loop
Image
Intro
Enjoy a gentle amble along the banks of the River Lugg, exploring stunning water meadows, taking in wide-open skies, and looking out to striking hills in the distance.
Don't Miss
The ancient floodplains of the River Lugg are home to a host of wildlife native to Britain, including the elusive but beloved kingfisher - keep your eyes peeled for that bright blue flash along the water.
Take note of Moreton Bridge, a sturdy stone testament to the route's history as a key trading path dating back to the 16th Century. For a culture fix, pop into not one, but two 12th Century churches in Sutton St Nicholas, each offering a unique window into the region's medieval past. Finally, round off your ramble by booking a table for a roast en route at Lyde Court, renowned locally for its outstanding Sunday carvery.
