Rustic Rocks & Rails (14 miles)

Sat, Oct 17, 8:15 AM

From Outdooraholics London Hiking & Adventure Travel 25 to 49ish

Often one is asked: "*What is your favourite place?*" One place leaving a most indelible mark is the sandstone outcrops of the Weald. So many happy fulfilling days and memories. These began in the Lower Cretaceous as sands accumulating in the shallow inland Wealden sea. The sands hardened over epochs into rocks. which may now be found hiding in the fields and forests all round the spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells. Passing among the woods with their outcrops is the Spa Valley Railway, whose steam trains add colour & sound, and a sense of nostalgia to the landscape. And this weekend the railway holds its annual Ale and Cider Festival, with food stalls, and free live music at its stations, as well as the heritage trains chugging to and fro along the line all day. A Spa Valley walk of autumn colours, unique rock formations, and stations visited along the line to sample the festivities. Further details of the Festival are here: https://spavalleyrailway.co.uk/events/real-ale-cider-festival/ TRAVEL: Take the 9.39 train from London Bridge to TUNBRIDGE WELLS. Walk starts 10.40 AM from Tunbridge Wells station. Circular walk The organizer will be standing from 9.15 am in front of the ticket office to act as a focal point for people to arrange Groupsave tickets. An off peak day return to TUNBRIDGE WELLS is £14.15 with Groupsave or a Network card and will cover all travel. *How to join?* * The walk is entirely free of charge; * You only arrange for your own travel and pub expenses; * Understand our terms and conditions below (the "IMPORTANT" part); * Understand how to stay safe outdoors, as you will be responsible for yourself. See our quick safety tips: http://www.meetup.com/Free-Outdoor-Trips-From-London/about/ Feel free to ask any questions in the comments section!

⛰️ The Malvern Hills Ridge End-To-End Traverse

Sun, Oct 4, 6:45 AM

From Walks by Water - walking, hiking London

################# **This hike is now FULL.** **We’ve created a list of [FAQs](https://drive.google.com/file/d/12gIZWTLfA3zQsx1fb0lpv1zOWP2vC5tq/view?usp=drive_link) to help answer your questions.** ################# Ready to embark on an epic and challenging **“miniature mountain range”** adventure? Then 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, but all that effort will be well-rewarded by the dramatic scenery! Comparable in distance and elevation to both **Snowdon** and **Scafell Pike**, yet on **much easier, non-rocky terrain**, it's also excellent training if you're eyeing bigger challenges this year, or simply want to stretch your legs and breathe in some fresh air after a long week at the desk. Rising abruptly from the flat Vale of Severn to the east and the rolling hills of Herefordshire to the west, the Malvern Hills reach their highest point at **Worcestershire Beacon** **(425 metres)**. Spectacular landscapes combined with a wealth of ecological, historical and geological gems make this a truly unique destination. And here's a fun fact: at around **700 million years old**, the rocks that form the Malvern Hills are among 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 mysterious 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 & DIFFICULTY** Distance: 9 miles (14km). Ascent: 760m. Difficulty: [Moderate](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BMjvqhAAdSeCdyzLPHs0z04_e2TiKdci/view?usp=sharing). **ITINERARY** **07:45** Meet outside Hotel Novotel London West, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (a five-minute walk from Hammersmith Station) **08:00** Sharp departure **11:00-17:00** The Malvern Hills end-to-end walk, past the summits of Herefordshire Beacon (338m) and Worcestershire Beacon (425m) **17:00-17:30** Drinks and refreshments in the spa town of Great Malvern **17:30** Departure **20:15** London, Hammersmith **TRANSPORT** As on most of our trips, we'll travel in a comfortable 16-seater minibus. **FOOD** We'll stop for a snack lunch halfway through the hike.

Take this opportunity to visit green parts of London, unknown to most people, and that you would not otherwise have an opportunity to see. **Social Event**: Our walks are social walks, where the emphasis is on meeting new people, enjoying nature, healthy exercise, and fresh air. Our walks are not interrupted with running commentaries or historical lectures, although occasionally features of significance may be pointed out. As such our walks will be continuous with few stops and it is your responsibilty to keep walkers ahead in view and to follow the direction of the walk. We always end the walk at a pub with a convivial atmosphere where the socialising can continue. *Be sure to join us in the pub for the whole experience!* COST of Walk: A £5 meetup organiser's contribution is payable if you do not hold the Ken's Events Card. The walk is free for holders of this card. **All of the walks on this group are only £5 each to attend. Why pay more on other groups for overpriced walks with no afterwalk socialising!!** WANT TO COME ON ANOTHER WALK?

However if torrentail rain is forecast, check on the morning of the event around 10am for latest update. **NOTICE of RISKS applicable for all walks:** Please dress appropriately for weather and terrain conditions. Only wear good sturdy shoes, with ankle support, and carry a bottle of water and necessary medication. You need to be moderately fit for this walk and able to walk for at least 8 miles. This walk is suitable for the average experienced hill walker. Expect some hills. Do not attend this walk if you do not fit that description or if you have a medical condition (especially heart and/or lung conditions) that may impact upon your capability of completing the walk. These walks are city walks and countryside walks where all the usual risks of injury during such walks apply resulting from interactions with road traffic, joggers, cyclists, e-scooters,other members of the public, animals (farm, domestic and wild), plants (allergic reactions), uneven surfaces, including portruding tree roots and potholes and there may be low overhanging branches. In these walks we cross busy roads, use towpaths alongside water, bridlepaths, country lanes and sometimes ill defined paths and tracks through woodland, bush and countryside. Some tracks may be muddy and slippery, and conditions may be wet and icy. The walk leader is not and does not purport to be a professional guide, or a medical professional, but is instead a like minded individual who also enjoys hill walking and who is familiar with the intended route. Do not attend this walk unless you accept and consent to the above risks. If you require insurance for these walks then you must arrange this yourself. **DISCAIMER** All Ken's Events are subject to a disclaimer.
