Overview

We will start with a short steep ascent to St. Ann’s Well.

Then we will follow a more gradual route to ascend to the Wyche Cutting with views across to the Cotswolds. From there we will continue to British Camp.

Afterwards we will return to Great Malvern following the ridge of the Malvern Hills via the highest point: the Worcestershire Beacon.

There will be a coffee stop and a lunch stop. There are public toilets at St. Ann’s Well, British Camp and the Wyche Cutting.
