This scenic walk starts from the car park from where we walk up North Malvern Road to join the Worcestershire Way, turning westwards to Storridge, up Whitman’s Hill and down to Hill House Farm. Then south through fields and west through woods to get to lovely Cradley Church where we’ll stop for a break, admiring the 1200 year old yew tree. From Cradley we’ll head eastwards up Cockshot Hill and past Bank Farm, before ascending to the ridge. We’ll turn northwards through the woods along the ridge before descending east towards Birches Farm and ascending to the Field Centre before returning along the road to the car park.

Total ascent of about 1600 feet with four ascents with about 10 stiles.

A good level of fitness is needed for the ascents.
