Background

Visiting

The Bog Mine Visitor Centre, the main facility for visitors to the Stiperstones, is housed in the former village school and retains its old interior design. Activities include walking, with two main circular walks called Mucklewick Walk and Flenny Bank Walk and a variety of riding routes. However, additional staff were found and the visitor centre is still open and running, staffed by the Bog Visitor Centre Volunteer Group.
