Would anybody know if there is a pleasant walk between the Malvern Hills Site and the 3 Counties Showground, I know we could walk on the main roads but on Google earth they look quite busy with no pavements.

    Yes you can walk it but I have not done it all the way. Come out of the site and walk towards Hanley Swan as far as the church. There is a footpath through the church yard into a field. Cross the field and you come to a track, turn right and you should find another track on your left which leads straight to the B4208 and the showground. Alternatively walk into Hanley Swan and along the footpath alongside the B4209. If you have bicycles this is the best route.

    Thank you for letting me know, that makes it a lot easier. It didn't seem worth taking the car such a short distance, but we didn't want to be caught out with no footpath on busy road. Just hope the weather's good as well now!! 

    Thanks again, Steve

    Plenty of paths to walk, we've taken a bus to Malvern and walked back before now. However, at certain times some are inclined to be muddy so go prepared!

    Just seen this post so hope this may be helpful in the future.  Streetmap.co.uk gives a good indication of public footpaths if you reduce it down using the  zoom level bars at the side after typing in your location post code, street or town.
