Ledbury to Malvern over the Malvern Hills (full day walk)

**This is a full-day walk around 12 miles long, with plenty of hills. Please only book if you have walked with us before AND you're confident of your level of fitness**

We're going to walk from Ledbury train station to Great Malvern train station, over fields and hills. The route will take us through Eastnor Deer Park and onto the hills, where we'll follow the ridge to climb all the available peaks. Eventually, we'll drop into Malvern and back to the station.

We'll meet 9am at Great Malvern station (WR14 3AL and free street parking) to take the 9.14am train to Ledbury. A ticket is £6.70 and the train gets to Ledbury at 9.26am (hopefully). Should you prefer to meet us at Ledbury, please be at Ledbury station for 9.26am (and let us know beforehand so we're not waiting for you at Malvern!)

Please bring a picnic, water, waterproofs, and everything you need for the day. We may find a cafe along the way but do bring your own supplies.

We're asking for a £6.50 contribution to attend this event. Please pay as you book. You’re welcome to bring a guest, but please pay £2.50 for them too.

How to pay:
Please pay via PayPal using the following link:
https://www.paypal.me/danwebb1. Select Friends and Family payment (it’s on the page where you choose your payment method), then we don’t get charged a commission. Please also put the event date as your reference, then we know what you’re booking.

All proceeds go towards running the group on Meetup. Once recovered, we'll give everything to charity.

Things you need to know:
1. We’re very friendly. Come on your own and you’ll soon be chatting with others. Whilst we have many regular attendees, almost every event includes first-timers.

2. We don't allow dogs on most of our walks. Whilst we have dogs ourselves, not everyone is keen. Plus, we've tried dogs welcome walks and there's been almost no take-up!

3. The Malvern area is a hilly place, on and off the hills. Whilst we’re very supportive if you’re looking to get fitter (and we stop for breaks when necessary), you must decide if you’re comfortable with the location of the event. We do host some flatter walks, but even those can catch us out sometimes with an unexpected hill. If you want more detail about a specific event, please message Dan or Anna beforehand – we’re always happy to help.

4. We run this group on a voluntary basis, just for fun. And we have a lot of it. Whilst we aim to look after everyone, you are responsible for your own safety.
