Possible Holidays
One Week
The Stourport Ring is a good one week holiday, although strenuous
at times. Alternatively, an out-and-back holiday can be taken
from any of the bases along the Stourport Ring or on sections
of the Avon Ring. An alternative is the route along the River
Severn past Tewkesbury to the newly restored old port of Gloucester
and its National Waterways Museum, then on to the Slimbridge Wildlife
and Wetlands Centre.
Short Breaks
Mid-week and weekend breaks are available from all Holidays in
the UK bases on the Stourport Ring.
Longer Holidays
In a two week trip the Stourport Ring can be combined with the
Black Country Ring or Four Counties Ring. The eastern section
of the Stourport Ring forms part of the 10-11 day Avon Ring.
