Overview

We will start the walk at Gorsley Baptist Church and go along quiet lanes, through an orchard and up onto Linton Ridge with spectacular views of the Malverns and the Welsh hills.  We will walk along the Ridge and then descend steeply along a lane running beside a stream.  From here we will walk over fields, up to Linton church and then back to Gorsley through two more orchards.
