This ambitious community-led project is seeking to work with the communities along the course of the River Stour to establish a new recognised 'Stour Way' long distance walking path. The river meanders through 30 miles of both some of the region's most densely populated urban areas and pastoral rural locations. Utilising existing public rights of way, canal towpath, National Cycle Network, public highway and working with landowners to establish new access routes where desirable, the path will connect communities with both the river's stunning examples of nature and its rich cultural heritage. It seeks to provide communities with new, accessible opportunities for health and well-being, fitness and connectivity. It will deliver a new understanding and connection with the regions heritage and how the river shaped the places we live today. It will celebrate and accelerate the natural recovery of the river over the previous decades - raising communities recognition, awareness, appreciation and love for the river as it flows to the Severn at Stourport.
