Guided Geology Walk Flaxley & Mugglewort Wood
This guided three-hour walk is led by Dave Green, a local geologist. The walk examines the underlying geology, mining, quarrying and industrial heritage of this wooded area. Multiple movements on the fault have severely deformed the rocks, which range in age from the oldest (Silurian mudstones and limestones) to youngest (Triassic mudstones and sandstones) in the Forest.
The walk route is a distance of approximately 3km, with one relatively easy climb and some stiles.
A reasonable level of fitness will be needed to complete the walk.
