# Event Details - **Event Name**: (New Year Calorie Burner!) The Malvern Hills Ridge Traverse - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 04 Jan, 2026 at 07:15 am – Sun, 04 Jan, 2026 at 07:45 pm - **Event Description**: Ready to embark on an epic and challenging “miniature mountain range” adventure?About this EventThen join us on a day hike to the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty! We'll walk south to north, taking in all the main summits of the Malvern Ridge. This is a difficult hike with lots of ascents and descents. However, all our efforts will be well-rewarded by the dramatic scenery!Rising abruptly from the flat lands of the Vale of Severn in the east and from the rolling hills of Herefordshire in the west, the Malvern Hills reach their highest point at Worcestershire Beacon (425 metres). The spectacular landscapes and a wealth of ecological, historical and geological gems make them a unique destination. Did you know that at about 700 million years old, the rocks that form the Malvern Hills are some of the oldest in the UK?The lofty Malvern range has drawn people since prehistoric times. Its summits offered good vantage points and were ideal for defence in troubled times. Our route will pass the impressive Iron Age hill forts of British Camp and Midsummer Hill, both believed to be over 2,000 years old. We’ll also visit the intriguing Hermit’s Cave (also known as Clutter’s Cave), a man-made chamber carved into the ancient rock at an unknown date.Our hike concludes in Great Malvern, once a fashionable spa retreat for Georgian and Victorian society. For centuries, the Malvern Hills have been well-known for their health-giving spring waters. Many famous people came to Malvern to “take the cure”, including Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens.DISTANCE & DIFFICULTYDistance: 9 miles (14km).Ascent: 760m.Difficulty: Moderate.ITINERARY07:15 Meet outside Hotel Novotel London West, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (a five-minute walk from Hammersmith Station)07:30 Sharp departure10:30-16:30 The Malvern Hills end-to-end walk, past the summits of Herefordshire Beacon (338m) and Worcestershire Beacon (425m)16:30-17:00 Drinks and refreshments in the spa town of Great Malvern17:00 Departure19:45 London, HammersmithTRANSPORTAs on most of our trips, we'll travel in a comfortable 16-seater minibus.FOODWe'll stop for a snack lunch halfway through the hike.
