Great Malvern and the Malvern Hills

The Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is famed for its dramatic hills and for the pure spring water that flows from them, but it offers so much more besides. A rich cultural heritage of forts, castles and priories stands proudly from this landscape of ancient woodland, rolling pastures and wild, open commons. The geology of the AONB is varied and fascinating and the area is home to a diversity of locally and nationally important wildlife.  

Our day walk will take in the central area of the Malvern Hills and from the summit, we will hopefully be able to enjoy fine views of the Cotswolds and the Welsh Black Mountains. 

After the decent in the latter part of the walk, we will explore the Spa town of Great Malvern. With its boutique shops, cafes, pubs and fine Victorian Architecture,  - a great way to end a day on the hills.
