Landscape

The Malvern Hills stand majestically above the Severn Plain in Worcestershire and the rolling wooded hills of Herefordshire offering visitors a dramatic view across a variety of landscape types.

The Hills and surrounding commons form part of the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.  The area is famed for its dramatic hills and for the pure spring water that flows from them, but it offers so much more besides. A rich cultural heritage of forts, castles and priories stands proudly from this landscape of ancient woodland, rolling pastures and wild, open commons.
