Recreation at Eastridge
 

Eastridge cycle trails are now open again. Ride with caution as machinery has disturbed the surface of many of the paths.

How to get there:

Eastridge is part of The Marches. Minsterley is the nearest town or village.

From Shrewsbury take the A488 to Minsterley. In Minsterley turn left onto Callow lane just before the pub. Continue to the T junction and turn right, bear right when the road forks and take the first turning on the right up a narrow lane.
