Worcester Ramblers: Eastnor Park and Gospel Oak 23 April 2026

 This was my second walk as walk leader for Worcester Ramblers. 

We started at Swinyard car park promptly at 1000 (despite the parking ticket machine being faulty) and walked up past the Gullett Quarry to the Obelisk on the Eastnor estate. 


Continuing across the estate we passed the new addition, part of the Berlin wall! This was chosen as the coffee break



The walk then continued out to the railway tunnel to Ledbury entrance,  along the Ridgeway and back over the Malverns through News wood , passing the Pink cottage back to the car park (to be greeted by the sight of the car park machine being fixed....obviously the number of phone calls they got earlier in the morning forced them into action!). Some of us went to the Duke of York pub again for lunch


Total 6.8 miles
