Bewdley-Stourport circular - Part 3. Nature reserves - and a safari park

The bleak land of the Rifle Range continued

 ...until I entered a new nature reserve. It's named after this conical mound - the Devil's Spittleful

The fanciful noticeboard shows some Mesolithic hunters on this very spot.

A close-up

There lots of interesting fungi around

 

Then I arrived at this fence: you might recognise the structures if you've visited the West Midland Safari Park

You can see some animals - but far away! It could be an impala.

The rhinos were round this building - but I need a zoom lens!

Anyway, who needs animals? These lovely autumn colours greeted me on the way back to the car

Walk details: 9.5 mile circular. Fairly easy to route find, but I can email the details should you require them. See yellow box below.
