 | Edwyn to Edvin | | 8:26am Mon 17 Sep 07 | | SAMPLE a short stretch of the 154-mile Herefordshire Trail on this lovely walk from Bromyard. The trail was created by members of the Ramblers' Association in partnership with Herefordshire Council and it's a hugely scenic route linking the county's five market towns. |
 | Inkberrow, Worcestershire | | 10:04am Tue 11 Sep 07 | | Julie Royle visits Shell, a tiny hamlet consisting of a packhorse bridge, a ford, a former mill, a 15th-century cottage and farm and a 20th-century picnic place. |
 | Droitwich Canal | | 11:35am Tue 4 Sep 07 | | THE Droitwich Canal, haunt of numerous moorhens and mallards, is easily explored by using the towpath which runs along its entire length. The canal cuts through the valley of the River Salwarpe, which has no towpath and in its more rural stretches is mostly inaccessible by rights of way. |
 | Ribbersford Woods | | 9:00am Mon 27 Aug 07 | | This walk turned out rather differently than was intended, due to an unexpected path closure following flood damage. |
 | Enjoy castles and churches in the shadow of Black Mountains | | 9:15am Mon 20 Aug 07 | | Ewyas Harold lies in the shadow of the Black Mountains, close to the southern end of the Golden Valley. Dulas Brook runs through the village and Ewyas Harold Common, criss-crossed by footpaths, rises above it to the north. |
 | Colwall, Worcestershire | | 12:06pm Tue 7 Aug 07 | | IN the days following the July floods, the Malvern Hills proved a popular vantage point for walkers wanting a bird's-eye view of the Severn valley, from Worcester down through Upton and Tewkesbury to Gloucester and beyond. |
 | Clent Hills | | 9:15am Wed 1 Aug 07 | | Despite the millions of people who visit the Clent Hills every year, there are often surprisingly few on a weekday, even in summer. |
 | Crossing the River Wye over several bridges. | | 10:36am Mon 23 Jul 07 | | The river Wye makes a series of great meandering loops between Hereford and Ross, which is why you'll cross it as many as four times on this walk, using three different bridges. |
 | Ankerdine Hill, Worcester | | 10:08am Tue 17 Jul 07 | | Ankerdine Hill may be little more than a bump in the landscape but it is remarkable for the steepness of its slopes. |
 | Oldwood Common, Tenbury Wells | | 9:32am Tue 10 Jul 07 | |
Tenbury Wells is situated on the edge of wonderfully peaceful countryside and makes an excellent starting point for many fine walks. |
 | Upper Arley | | 9:56am Tue 3 Jul 07 | | Woods and water make a good combination for a summer walk and there's plenty of both on this one. Trimpley Reservoir and Lower Pool occupy an attractive location between the River Severn and Eymore Wood, and there is public access to reservoirs, river bank and wood, thanks to Severn Trent and Arley Estates. |
 | Painswick's Valleys | | 12:09pm Tue 26 Jun 07 | | Many people consider the hills and valleys round Painswick to be the loveliest part of the entire Cotswold region. Fortunately, exploring the area on foot is easy as there are lots of footpaths, as well as numerous nature reserves and commons with open access. |
 | Martley, Worcestershire | | 10:30am Mon 18 Jun 07 | | Outcrops of Silurian limestone to the north of Martley mean lime-rich soils that provide optimum conditions for many wild flowers. |

 | Foster's Green National Nature Reserve, Worcester. | | 10:30am Mon 21 May 07 | | Though there's much to enjoy on this walk, one undoubted highlight is Foster's Green National Nature Reserve.
