Malverns by train

This circular walk across the Malverns starts with a train trip from Colwell station into Malvern, then a walk along the ridge back to the station.  This was a GWG walk and the details are here.

We stopped for an icecream at British Camp and then went for a beer at the Chase Inn.

Fleece Inn at Bretforton

This was a walk from the Worcestershire News and a excuse to visit the Fleece Inn at Bretforton.  The only National Trust pub and it didn't disappoint, with stone floors and open fires, we had an excellent lunch in the pewter room.  The walk was very muddy and not that inspiring.

The Green Dragon at Cockleford

Today's walk was from the Green Dragon Inn at Cockleford.  This was my first time out with the Gloucestershire Walking Group.  It was their first outing of the new year and an exceptional 38 people joined the walk.  The route was fairly short and had been moved to drier ground from the original plan of the Cotswold Water park, which was living up to it's name.

The Old Crown Inn, Uley

This walk is over the hills of Cam long down and Uley bury and into Petty Helger's Tump puts me in touch with the old history of the people of the cotwold escarpment.  The landscape worked since the iron age is unique in my experience.

There's a car park at the bottom of peaked down which is a good place to start.  The pub in Uley, the Old Crown Inn, serves the local beer and a decent lunch.

Marcle Ridge

This walk was part of a day out to the Big Apple festival in Much Marcle.  The walk was found on the web here but our route involved a bit of additional getting lost.  All was much improved by a lunch in the Slip Tavern and a trip around the Westons Cider factory.

Stroud Five Valleys

After meaning to do this walk for a number of years, finally got down to Nailsworth for the Meningitis Trust Five Valleys Walk.  Was a lovely autumn day and the local support for was very good with tea and cake stops, even a beer tent at half way.  Stopped at the Old Fleece on the way back for a decent late Sunday lunch.
