8 Glorious AUTUMN WALKS

CANNOCK CHASE FOREST STAFFORDSHIRE

Part of the Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this forest has a variety of habitats for wildlife and features Corsican pine, Scots pine, silver birch and beech trees, among others. The tranquil Fairoak Trail takes you through the Fairoak Valley, where you may well see deer flitting through the trees, and past the beautiful Fairoak Pools, where that unique light you only get in autumn is a photographer’s dream. From here you can choose to join either the Sherbrook Trail’s Pepper Slade loop (12km), or the Abraham’s Valley loop (20km) for a full day
