THE MILLENNIUM WAY

100 miles of superb walking across the centre of England

Background information from Solihull 41 Club 

·       The unique MILLENNIUM WAY is a gem of a long-distance path, taking in 100 miles of the diverse, delightful and historic heart of England. The route extends from Pershore, Worcestershire, in the west to Middleton Cheney, Northamptonshire in the east.

·       Now, with the full approval of local authorities, the MILLENNIUM WAY has been cleared and distinctively waymarked, making it an exceptional walkers’ experience.

Chris Tayler, founder of MILLENNIUM WAY, strides out past Packwood House.

·       It’s taken years of dedicated planning and hard work by a team of enthusiasts from Solihull 41 Club, led by Chris Tayler, together with the support of other 41 Clubs along the way to make the MILLENNIUM WAY accessible to the growing number of walkers and ramblers who appreciate the countryside and the great benefits in health and fitness that walking brings.

·       The MILLENNIUM WAY embraces the advantages offered by the Internet - the whole route is totally available online and updated on our web site.

·       Smaller circular walks have been planned along the route to include different stages of the MILLENNIUM WAY making it accessible to those looking for shorter, more local walks. 

·       The following 41 Clubs support the MILLENNIUM WAY by carrying out regular annual checks of the path to monitor the accuracy of instructions and changes on the ground ensuring the walk offers a pleasant and enjoyable experience.
