Overview

The morning walk starts in the woodland of the  southern Malverns before passing through Whiteleaved Oak. We will then climb to the viewpoint on Chase End Hill and return through Bromesberrow Place and the east side of the hill. This part of the walk is 4.5 miles and the ascent 700ft.

In the afternoon there is a steep climb onto Midsummer Hill before descending to the Gullet and returning over Hangman's Hill.

This walk has the potential to hear the cuckoo, look out for peregrine nests and enjoy the bluebells.
