Summer Hill is a bit of a bump in between the Beacon and the Wyche Cutting, however it's steep southern aspect does afford some of the best views along the Malvern Hills ridge, particularly when there is an Inversion happening.

Such a peaceful place

great place for a rest/ picnic

The hill lies to the south of the Worcestershire Beacon, which is Worcestershire's (and the Malvern Hills') highest hill, and Summer Hill's summit, though often overlooked given the grandeur of its neighbour, is a most respectable 1,253 feet above sea level. Source: Wikishire

Another of the many mini peaks

Beckford Nature Reserve, situated just north of the centre of the village, is a wonderful place for a stroll and to enjoy nature. The reserve features a peaceful lake, lots of bushy green vegetation, woodland trails, and some interesting wildlife, including as greylag goose and wigeon.

Nice place with spectacular views.

Nice view and parking nearby.

From the peak of Summer Hill you get fantastic views of Worcestershire Beacon and the beautiful winding road that leads up to it.

Great views from here

beautiful hidden lake at old quarry

The closest car park to Summer Hill is West of England Quarry Car Park. There are also 3 other car parks about 1/2 mile away: Earnslaw, Upper Beacon and Lower Beacon car parks

Directly south of Worcestershire Beacon is the smaller Summer Hill. Its eastern flank is scarred by an abandoned quarry: Earnslaw Quarry Lake. However, the site is now an excellent spot for a picnic on a walk up to Summer Hill, with parking available at Earnslaw Quarry car park.

Nice place for coffee break.

Earnslaw Spring is at the southern end of Earnslaw Quarry. This spring supplies Earnslaw Lake with water. Today this Site of Special Scientific Interest is a secluded haven of wild life but this was not always the case. Earnslaw was one of the last quarries in the Malvern Hills to practice mass removal of stone, although there are indications that it was worked as early as 1836.  Earnslaw Pool is yet another image of what was once a quarry and is now a rather deep pool. A potted history is that an Alfred Earnslaw owned the quarry where, starting in 1836, granite was extracted. Out of the proceeds Alfred built Earnslaw House nearby, the drive to which from the main road now provides the access route to the pool. The house was demolished in 1936. Four years earlier there had been a serious landslip caused by the quarrying leading to a legal action against the quarry by the Conservators of the Malverns, which they won. Damages and costs were awarded against the quarry in the amount of almost £6000. By the 1960s the quarry was almost worked out and the then Worcestershire County Council purchased the site and handed it over to the Conservators. Part of the quarry filled up with spring water forming the pool we see today. Apparently there are fish in it. The quarry is now part of the Malvern Hills Site of Special Scientific Interest.

Lovely little nature reserve nestled just beyond the Colwall Railway Station. Small pond, adler woods and beyond a bog.

Real chilled out spot nice and shaded too, tread carefully as the ground is very uneven.

Pirton Pool is a wonderful lake surrounded by fallow parklands. You may spot deer roaming the green fields, dotted with cedar trees dating back to the mid-18th century. The lake and parklands are especially beautiful in the early morning when sun hits the mist over the water.
