Video - Worcestershire Walking Great Witley Hiking Abberley in the Heart Of England UK

Worcestershire Walking Great Witley Hiking Abberley in the Heart Of England UK was an interesting 7.5 miles hike. There was quite a lot of historic interest as well as scenic appeal along this hike in the midst of the woody hills of Abberley. Abberley Hills ascend to a height of around 305 metres above the countryside of pastures, meadows and orchards sandwiched between the Teme Valley and Severn Valley. The historical points of interest started with the impressive ruins of Witley Court, with the showy 18th-century Great Witley Church adjacent to it. In total contrast, we also visited the remains of a simple Norman church in Abberley Village. The chief scenic appeal was the fabulous hike along the top of the ridge of Abberley Hill, which was preceded by a very steep ascent.

This was an interesting and enjoyable hike. The terrain was relatively flat and fairly easy to traverse with one exception, that of the very steep climb up the wooded side of Abberley Hill. Much of the hike was along quiet country tracks, bridleways and lanes with a couple of road sections. There were also several pastures and meadows to traverse. The route was circular in an anti-clockwise direction with five legs.
