Corvedale Cake Walk
The Corvedale Cake Walk is a Marches LDWA challenge walk based at Holdgate Church near Much Wenlock, Shropshire (TF13 6LW, Grid Ref SO 562896). Two waymarked routes leave and return to Holdgate and use local tracks, fields and sections of the Jack Mytton Way.
The longer route rises to Abdon Burf, the highest point in Shropshire, and includes a climb of Wenlock Edge with open views towards Mid Wales. The shorter route also reaches the summit of Abdon Burf before returning via lanes and fields. Full route descriptions are provided by the organiser in advance.
Practical information includes clearly signed parking nearby, hot drinks at the start, full refreshments at control points including cakes and sandwiches, and hot dogs at the finish. Participants should carry suitable clothing for changeable weather and are asked to bring a mug. Dogs are not permitted and under 18s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. The event references OS Explorer map 217 Longmynd and Wenlock Edge.
