Long Mynd

About this park

Lace up your boots and leash up your furry friend for a truly wild and wonderful adventure at the Long Mynd, nestled in the heart of Church Stretton, Shropshire. This expansive National Trust site offers breathtaking scenery with rolling hills, heather-clad moorlands, and the picturesque Carding Mill Valley. It's a fantastic spot for dogs and their humans who love an invigorating walk amidst stunning natural beauty. Be prepared for varied terrain, from gentle valleys to steeper climbs offering panoramic views across the Shropshire Hills. Dogs are very welcome here, and it's a brilliant place for them to explore. Please keep a close eye on your canine companion, especially where livestock may be grazing. You'll find plenty of open spaces for them to stretch their legs, but be mindful of ground-nesting birds, particularly in spring and summer. The National Trust encourages responsible dog ownership, so always pick up after your dog and consider keeping them on a lead in busier areas or close to wildlife. Parking is available at Carding Mill Valley, though it can get very busy on weekends and school holidays, so be ready for potential overflow parking off-site and a short walk in. There’s a tea-room and toilets on site, making it easy to refuel and refresh after your ramble. Come and experience the wild beauty of the Long Mynd – it's a proper treat for both two and four-legged explorers!
