Malvern Hills and Bredon Hill
Summary There’s a couple of
stiff climbs on this ride, mostly
on well surfaced trails and
farm track. Be careful with the
directions as it gets fi ddly when
you turn back on yourself.
Park up at Lower Wyche
and head to the cutting
along the road, where you’ll
find a clearly signposted
bridleway, which contours
along the eastern edge of the
hill. Follow this, sticking to the
leveller paths, until you reach
a hairpin junction above some
houses.
Begin the climb up to
Perseverance Hill, which
takes you through cattle gates
and out of the woodland onto
open hillside. Descend sharply
between two gates, then
pick up the path, which
switchbacks briefly before
bearing left to descend
towards the road.
Take a sharp right at the
crossroads at the
bottom, emerging onto
tarmac and following fi rst the
minor road and then the
A449 to the car parks at
British Camp. Take the left of
two bridleways to loop round
below the hill, turning sharply
back on yourself at the route’s
southerly tip to travel back to
Little Malvern and then back
onto bridleway after retracing
your steps on the road.
Pass your initial exit
point and continue to
access a slightly easier climb;
this is a long pull that crosses
the previous route, but you
should fi nd yourself at the top
with perseverance.
Bear right at the edge of
the trees, descending
gentle singletrack all the way
back down to the Wyche
cutting before hopping back
on the road to get back to the
car park. |

Hills and Bredon Hill
Summary A fast and furious trail
teaser that takes in the best of the
Malverns’ riding.
From the car park at North
Malvern, take the left of two
bridleways to fi nd the zig-zag climb
that takes you up the eastern fl ank of
the hill.
Contour around the northern face
of North Hill, descending and then
climbing slightly to a grassy saddle
before turning hard right to descend a
fall-line path. Turn left at the bottom
and climb all the way back up the hill to the saddle between Sugarloaf Hill and Worcestershire Beacon. Continue
straight to pick up the rollercoaster
sequence, which eventually exits at St
Anns Well.
From here, climb steeply
back up to the saddle,
bearing left to ascend
Worcestershire Beacon. From the
trig point, take the left of the two
bridleways that descend due
south, dropping into the cutting
to enjoy singletrack.
At the road exit, cross
tarmac and bear right on
more singletrack, which descends
to another road where you pick
up another bridleway right to
climb back up to Sugarloaf Hill.
Bear left at the saddle to
pick up Lady Howard De
Walden Drive, which contours
around the eastern face of the
hill and returns you to the fi rst
switchback ascent of the day,
which you now descend to return
to the car park. |

Hills and Bredon Hill
Summary A hilly romp covering the length
and breadth of the Malverns, with a
mixture of well surfaced, hardpack trails and muddier sections.
From the North Malvern car park, take
the left of two bridleways that head
south. Navigate the hairpins with care to avoid
getting lost — our route is well ridden so the
most obviously used trail should see you right.
Once round fi ve hairpins and out of the
treeline, continue right to contour
around North Hill, descending and then
climbing to Sugarloaf Hill.
Bear to the right to pass around this
grassy top and continue straight across
at the next saddle, dropping slightly and
bearing right to loop up and around the back
of Worcestershire Beacon.
From the trig point, take the left of the
two bridleways that run down the ridge,
dropping into a cutting with singletrack. At the
exit onto the road, bear left and double back to zig-zag down to the road.
Turn right to Wyche Gap, then take the signed bridleway to fi rst contour around, then switchback and climb up to the top of Perseverance Hill. At the top, pass through two gates with a steep descent between them and take the path that trends left down to the road.
Follow a minor road, then the A449
south towards British Camp, bearing left onto bridleway at the car park after a mile.
Follow this loop below the hill, turning left towards Underhills Farm and then retracing your steps along the roads to climb back up Perseverance Hill on bridleway before
descending it from top to bottom.
At Wyche Gap, turn left and then right, following the access drive for the car parks, turning left onto the bridleway.
Descend and then climb from the next
car parks, continuing straight over as
you top out to descend towards Green Valley and then St Annes Well.
Climb out of this deep, narrow valley
back towards Sugarloaf and follow the
contouring path around to the bridleway that descends behind the disused quarries, emerging at the car park. |
