Walk the Malvern Hills: 17 Peaks in 6 Stunning Circular Walks

Love walking? So do we — and the Malvern Hills are one of the UK’s most beautiful places to walk. If you're looking for a fun, flexible way to explore the full ridge, you’ll love this idea: bag all 17 named peaks in just 6 scenic circular walks. Each loop starts and finishes at the same point, making it easy to enjoy breathtaking views without the need for car sharing or tricky planning.

Why Walk the Malverns This Way?

The classic end-to-end Malvern Hills walk is iconic, but it can be tricky to plan — needing two cars or public transport. These 6 circular routes let you explore every named summit at your own pace. Whether you're local or visiting, it’s a more flexible and fun way to experience the hills.

Once you've bagged all 17, why not tackle the full ridge in one go? (There’s a booklet for that too!)
