The Malverns are absolutely stunning!!
The Hills are spectacular in all seasons. They are the undiscovered gem of the UK, offering 100s miles of trails to explore.
They are a 12 mile stretch, that rise out of the Worcestershire/Herefordshire border. Ancient and awe-inspiring, you can see 13 counties across England and Wales, from its top peaks.
The Malvern Hills have been designated as a biological and geological Site of Special Scientific Interest, and by Natural England as National Character Area 103 and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
There are quiet woodland ambles to enjoy as well as end-to-end hill walks. Also, commons, with a diverse array of wildlife, star gazing across the wide skies, which are kept as free from light pollution as possible, and ancient and historic landscapes, providing the 88 natural springs that made Malvern the famous spa town it became.
Great Malvern itself is steeped in history, with its beautiful Priory and variety of architecture. There is so much to investigate about The Water Cure, the crucial role Malvern played during the Second World War, and its early beginnings.
The whole area has so much to explore and enjoy, with great places to refresh and refuel. Dogs and muddy boots are welcomed here... and the area is generally laid-back and friendly.
It's also a great base to explore Worcester, Hereford, Gloucester, Cheltenham, The Cotswolds. It's 1 hr from Birmingham 3hrs from London.
