This walk is in the past.
We will get the 10:42 train from Malvern Link to Ledbury for 11am where we will start the walk. We head out east via Eastnor Deer Park and then up onto the Malverns starting with the ascent of Swinyard Hill, then Hangman's Hill, Milennium Hill, British Camp (lunch) follwed by ice cream at the cafe & toilets, then 5 more hills (including more public toilets) on the way to Worcestershire Beacon, followed by Sugarloaf Hill, Table Hill and End Hill, then a descent back to Malvern Link via a pub for some hot/cold drinks. Please bring suitable clothing and good walking footwear, a mat to sit on when we have lunch, sunglasses (might be low sun, but it will mainly be behind us) and a small torch, though we should be finished before sunset. We will try to get a groupsave ticket for the train which is £6.40 before any discount (save 1/3) and the car park is £3.50/car. Please bring some cash to make paying for car share & share of parking & train ticket easier. The walk has 980m of ascent with the highest point being Worcestershire Beacon, the highest point in the Malverns. For any of you who walk to the meet point for car share at Avonmeads Showcase, we'll aim to ensure you are dropped off in more central Bristol on the way back as its a bit dark and isolated in the Avonmeads area in the evening.
Bring packed lunch. Pub to finish.
