Thank you for your fantastic video, Grace. I am heading to the Malvern Hills this summer for a few days hiking holiday, so this was very helpful and informative.
Thank you so much for posting this , last walked those hills in 1984 when I visited my grandmother who lived in Colwall, brought back some nice memories of her and England. I live in the USA
Colwall is nice! Done some nice walks from Colwall to The Malvern Hills.
Loved your video i lived in Malvern Wells from the age of 5 to 13yrs the hills were my playground I love them, my sisters ashes are under a tree overlooking where we lived I will join her one day as it is a wonderful place. A lovely memory I have is opening the curtains in the morning and seeing the hills all White with snow Thanks for taking me down memory lane :)
I returned from Malvern Wells yesterday, A week walking in the Hills you love, Your sister rests in a beautiful place.
Being in a beautiful place is the best high you can get
Thank you, very useful video.
I need to meet someone like you, who also loves walking. I'm doing this walk on the comming weekend
I grew up in Worcester, so only about 20 minutes away, and walked often on the Malverns, including doing end-to-end twice in my teens. I can’t pretend to remember each one individually (or what they’re all called!) but this brought back nostalgic memories! I live in the North now and this makes me miss the midlands…
I live in Worcester too, come back here one day for a visit….
I wished I found this video, before we went up the hill, this is a great blog, thank you.
Aww thank you!
Done the same route on the hottest day of the year with a 6am start . A gorgeous walk highly recommend . Fantastic video brought back some memories .
Stunning scenery.
Grace that was a lovely video of the hills I have climbed so many times from a kid to now. I love the Malverns and you did it proud. Go gurl 👌🏽
Good effort Grace! Loved it
Great video! The view from the Worcestershire Beacon is an incredible one!
Another great walk, have done this one a few times now, and just lovely
Ay-up! Oooo I really wanna give this a go! Thanks for sharing! :)
Great views , and a great vid too , well done
Awesome vid!
I am based up north, living down south and have been looking for some hikes/walks- will give this a go this weekend 👍
Nice vlog. I live on the Malvern Hills and it’s always a pleasure to see people enjoying them. There are many different routes which can be undertaken by all abilities, some beautiful natural springs, quarries and cave systems too. Really enjoyed your video, hope to see more! Subbed. 👍
Aww thanks so much! I agree, beautiful place.
@Jellybean malvern link station drops you at the north end of the hills. Head up the Worcester road and then north malvern road that will take you to the clock tower and one way onto the hills. The other is great malvern station head up avenue road that takes you into great malvern. Carry on up church street and at belle vue terrace enter the rose bank gardens which has the ‘99 steps’ that takes you up onto the hills.
hiking with nature,
extremely beautiful sharing.
Looks a cool hike... heading over on Sat to follow your footsteps.... then turn around and head back😅 ⛰ .cheers.
Looks great Grace. Nice part of the world
Beauutiful 😍
Well done, that's quite a challege! I don't know anyone who's walked the whole lot in one go but I would've guessed the distance was longer. Alll the best!
Thank you! Yep 10 miles end to end :) long way back if you don’t have a lift haha.
Looks good Grace, been wanting to try this area. Will give your route a go 👍
Yes do it! I hope you enjoy 😀
Very nice video 👍👍
+3:48 Interval training! 😁
I've never been there, only seen them from afar, but the landscape looks like quintessentially English loveliness. The good weather showing it off to it's best.
Cool Vid, new subscriber, great views, I often walk in the Malverns, its beautiful xx
Thank you! And isn’t it just... 😍
What a great vid
Coming from Great Malvern, I remember doing a 10 mile sponsored walk each year towards the end of term, with the school along 'The Hills'. They were a bit of a laugh.
We don't have trig markers here in Canada. At least in Ontario. Perhaps in the Rockies they exist. Sometime there are Cairns. Enjoying watching your yomping about since I found your channel the other day.
I live like 10 mins away from the Malvern hills and its amazing and the beacon really good but windy and a cafe once burnt down there
Great video. 1 always use a garman GPS never a smart phone 2 even if you double back you can be weak and cut out hills to keep your return route as flat as you want or need to if your legs are wearing out 3 you missed out ragged stone hill 254m, you need to walk east down a road till you see what looks like a small quarry and walk up the tiny high paths and it's extremley steep towards the top. I walked from the malvern wells car park to the beacon then to the north hill 397m doubled back in 3:37 just before 22:00 did 9.1 miles total ascent 4725 ft decent 4114 ft max elevation 1413 ft min elevation 111ft. If I could of carried on past my car I could of done more. I'd recommend parking in the middle or to the north if you want ot get really fit but you don't need to injure yourself if you are not used to endurance sport. I live in worcester and can spot the locals because they are running around with a six pack showing off or wearing feel running trainners.
I slipped over in the rain walking with a friend on the north hill 397m. There is no moutain rescue so you really have to be stupid in a quarry or Ivy scar to get into trouble. There is alot of bouldering you can do in that area. I'd recommend the Garmin etrx 30 and some walking sticks for later use.
I’ll try this before the 2nd lockdown in the uk
nice video, something im planning to do but north to south.
The Malvern Hills end to end
Going tomorrow. Darn I'm going to struggle. 😅
We started at the same end you did!
Wow, beautiful video. I plan to go there in December 2021. I won't have time to do all the hills. If I only have 2-3 hours, which ones would you recommend please?
Did this in april of 2021 and highest hills had snow on them. pretty cool
A super video....we get many guests at Treherne House B&B complete this walk, and it can be extended even further if you want to!
❤❤❤👍
I enjoyed walking the Malvern hills.
Grace, have you walked on Dartmoor? The Ten Tors is a good challenge
Good going Grace. It was worth doing a dance or two for. The weather was perfect. How long was it before your legs recovered? Your fit no doubt a day or so. I've done that walk to with my twin brother. The views either side are great. All the best. Mark (Hereford)
Hi Grace, what route / route mapper were you using to follow the trail? That first bit from Chase End Hill until you get out onto the 3rd hill is always tricky to sort out.
Looks like you finished on the North Hill not end hill 😬 you still had one more hill to go and drop down to west malvern.
Looks like you finished at the clock tower .
Still a fantastic walk im so lucky to live in malverm and I get to spend alot of time up the hills its one of my favourite places
Well done!..great views too!..what was your favourite hill?..
Im so lucky to live right on top of the Malvern Hills ! Never heard of 'Millenium Hill' tho !!!! I assume that was 'British Camp/Herefordshire Beacon' ? Didnt know they'd given it a third name !
Yeah, me neither! I think it's because the word 'camp' isn't PC...! Like the Gay Dog pub at Baughton is now just called the Dog...
millenium hill is by Hollybush. still a 20-30 min walk from british camp
😍 🥰
Hoping to go over weekend. Best place to start? Any other things to see with kids?
I've got some time off in a couple of weeks and was thinking of heading up to Malvern to do this. I've walked up individual bits of it while working up there but not done the whole length
It's well worth doing, such a beautiful 10 miles of hills! You'd either just need a car at each end or walk back (and you can skip most of the hills using the path to the side if you walk it). Hope you enjoy it!
@@GracesAdventures I was thinking of driving to Ledbury and parking up there, doing the walk and then you can take the train three stops from the bottom of the hill in Malvern back to Ledbury.
LiveNotSurvive great idea!
I went their today I didn’t explore that much though I even got to the top
Did you walk the British Camp ( Bronze Age hill fort ) ? That’s a decent walk if you walk from Ledbury castle in Eastor , you Will past the Land Rovers doing their kid climbs !
Hi Grace I lived there for about 10 years until a year ago ( now in the Forest of Dean an interesting contrast not far away) and never did the full walk so you've inspired me , btw did you walk back to the car or get a lift ??!!
Nice of her to get back to you.
Be doing this route end of month is chase end car park where you start opposite end to the town itself or is end hill
Great video. Just wondering how you got back to your car at the end?
Great video, just what I was looking for while planning my walk end to end. Did you come across any water points on your route, either taps provided or fresh water streams? Cheers
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! There is a cafe almost mid-way which serve drinks and snacks which proves handy ☺️ other than that no fresh water streams or taps that I saw!
@@GracesAdventures oh cool, halfway sounds the perfect enticement! Cheers 😀👍
@@GracesAdventures oh cool, halfway sounds the perfect enticement! Cheers 😀👍
@@GracesAdventures British Camp Hotel and Wyche Cutting both have refreshments, even water for dogs!
Could there be a bus from one end of the hills to the other? Dont fancy walking all the way back😁
Malvern doesnt have any bus services
I've been here twice xd
so how did u get back from the ending point back to u r car?
i meant are there any buses or trians etc?
No i was lucky enough to get a lift from a local friend. It would be a good idea to do it with two of you and leave a car at each end!
Do you have the route you took for this please ?👀 x
My wife is worried about what you did with the little dog during the walk? lol
Hahaha awww he went to Nanny’s for the day, too far for his little legs 😂😂
How did you get back to your car? I'm looking on Google Maps what the route for public transport will be and it says it will take just over 4 hours to get back to the southside by bus. Or did you have a friend pick you up?
I had a friend pick me up this time but the 2nd time I did it I got a taxi which was £35!
I ride on my mtb here all the time lol
pest
@@iansmith8263 only if I put others in danger and ride in places I shouldn’t I never do so don’t assume we’re given a bed rep because some people are twats on their bikes
@@cass_metal thx for the swift response
Did you do this solo? I’m planning to go solo soon as I don’t have anyone to go with and is it safe?
nooooo, she did it with her whole ****ing family who u can clearly see with her. For ****'s sake.
So you did 20 miles in total? :O
Hi. Doing this walk tomorrow. How did you get back to your car in Chase End?
nosey parker
I have said it before walking pole make going up down hills alot easier
what makes u think we wouldve heard u say it before?
Soooooo how did you get back to your car. Taxi?
Hoi, super video guide. We also plan to do this trip on weekends, Would you like to join us? And do it again) The weather promises to be beautiful.
Beautiful eyes xx Just saying.
Love this. I’m currently shooting a similar hiking/adventure vlog. I would be keen to find out what you think? 😄
did you have to return journey to get back to car ?
I had a friend who lived nearby and drove me back to my car on this day - the second time I did it I walked back though.
@@GracesAdventures how long did it took altogether when you did walk back second time?
Rode here the other day on the bike

Beautiful place
how did you get back to your car?
I was lucky enough to have a local friend who drove me - otherwise I think you’d need 2 cars to do it!
I would suggest to anyone else wanting to do this to ditch the technology and get a paper map, OS or even one of the dedicated walkers maps from the Conservators, that way you will be able to see which paths are for walkers only and can have words with the many bike riders who ignore the rules!
BTW, no mention of Black Hill?
Would love to go climbing with you!
Your energy is awesome
And I have a fat crush on you ugh
i bet youve never said that to a girl's face in your life. This is no place to make up for it.
Legs are too small , that dog would walk further and faster than we ever could .. my 2 toy dogs walked 18 miles in hills one day , their legs are only 6 inches tall
the small legs thing was a joke, dude
For some reason you look really intimidating... Even though you're clearly a very nice prison!
freakiest comment of the year award goes to u
You left your dog in the car alone for nearly 6 hours... 🐶👎
In another comment, she says she dropped the dog off at a relatives.
Greebo, your name fits you well, u utter greeb.
Also wear proper footwear not 'trainers' and don't walk on the gravelly bits!!!
I need to meet someone like you, who also loves walking. I'm doing this walk on the comming weekend
