Overview

This is a lovely walk close to Bredon Hill with views to the Malverns as well as riverside walking. We start in Eckington and walk through the village towards the River Avon. We walk along the Avon to Eckington Bridge for our refreshment break. We then cross the fields to Birlingham and walk through the village and then to Nafford Lock and on towards Bredon Hill  and back to Eckington. It is an easy walk with no stiles and very little ascent/descent.
