Worcestershire Way
This walk takes you from Bewdley to Great Malvern where you can enjoy splendid views of the Malvern Hills.
The path starts on the River Severn in Bewdley and heads south, passing the villages of Abberley and Martley on your way to Great Malvern. The walk also takes you through the delightful Ravenshill Woodland Reserve and the Teme Valley where you can enjoy a short riverside section along the River Teme.
The final section is particularly lovely as you pass through the glorious Malvern Hills before finishing in the town of Great Malvern.
You can extend the walk by continuing to the southern end of the Malverns and visiting the British Camp Iron Age Hill Fort on Herefordshire Beacon.

Pubs/Cafes
One lovely place for a pit stop is The Manor Arms in the delightful village of Abberley. The inn has an interesting history dating back to the 17th century when it was owned by the Lord of the Manor and was originally a much smaller inn with its own brew house. They have a wonderful sunny terrace and decking area overlooking the hills behind the village. It's the ideal spot to relax in on warmer days. You can find the inn at a postcode of WR6 6BN for your sat navs.
If you take the extension south to Herefordshire Beacon you could visit Colwall and try the Colwall Park Hotel to consider. Here you can enjoy a delicious afternoon tea in the cosy interior or outside in the lovely garden. You can find them at Walwyn Rd, WR13 6QG. There's also the Chase Inn in Upper Colwall. There's a great menu and a really splendid garden area with lovely views towards the Black Mountains. You can find the pub just to the south of Worcestershire Beacon, with a postcode of WR13 6DJ for your sat navs.
