About Us:

Thresholds is situated at the northern end of the prehistoric trackway, known as The Portway, on top of The Long Mynd at nearly 1400 feet above sea level.

From Thresholds you can ride across The Long Mynd including joining The Jack Mytton Way. Ride UK / Ride Shropshire routes are also easily accessible, with one route actually passing Thresholds. Other well marked bridleways in this beautiful countryside will enable you to explore less well known parts of The Long Mynd and Stiperstones area
