Description
This route is through some wonderful quiet countryside across fields and past orchards and through some woods. The landscape is very undulating so there are climbs but nothing too severe and great views when you get to the top - e.g. towards the Black Mountains and the Malvern Hills. This gives you a proper Herefordshire countryside experience - unlike what most just see from the car - lots of fields, hamlets, farms and churches. Apart from the very welcoming natives you are unlikely to see many others on this walk. There are plenty of places to stop and have a picnic. Leominster is a great place to explore and Bromyard has plenty of places to eat and drink. With only a brief view of an A road this route could easily transport you back 50-100 years ago to a quiet rural idyll and architecture. This route has no shops or pubs on the way as it is designed to maximise the countryside experience - so take some local cheese, cider / perry to enjoy on the way !

Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.
