The beautiful Malvern Hills are the jewel in the crown of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This 9 days of walking was your opportunity to enjoy some of our breathtakingly beautiful views in the company of others. You would have had a friendly guide to both lead the way and to indicate points of interest you may normally have missed. You will have seen views that have not changed greatly since Edward Elgar walked his beloved Malvern Hills and was inspired to write his music all those years ago. Some of these walks were planned to appeal to families as well as serious walkers. Most walks have some value to walkers who are also interested in natural history, local history and the geology of this beautiful area.
