오버버리 주변 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

The walk along the top of the edge of the hill is easy and gives fine views across the Vale of Evesham and also east to the Cotswold escarpment. Wonderfully airy place that is different to the rest of the Wychavon Way.

A quite impressive rock formation that really does look like an elephant lying down.

The folly itself actually looks like it really is an industrial tower housing mobile phone equipment, but the views are very good. Nearby is the Elephant Stone - it looks like an Elephant kneeing down. Not far from the Cotswold Stone drystone wall is the circular stone that marks the very top of Bredon Hill.

Good parking, half a dozen spaces on Woollas Hill, near Deer Park centre. Views on way up to Folly are spectacular. Good to get the climb out the way early with gentle, long descent in to Broadway.

From the start at Overbury to about 210m above the sea, there's a paved section (as shown in the photo). However, from there onwards, it's a bridleway, which isn't suitable for road bikes. However, pushing for about 900m (in one direction) is definitely worth the views on the top of Bredon Hill. Average gradient 6%, maximum 12%

Warren Wood is a pretty pocket of woodland located near Bredon Hill in Worcestershire. A winding trail leads you through the beautiful Cotswolds forest, which can be enjoyed in all seasons.

Beautiful quiet woodland with a bridleway running through it. Take care to stay on the bridleway and off of the adjacent footpath.

Kemerton Camp is a hillfort on the top of Bredon Hill in Worcestershire. With a steep escarpment dropping away on the north side of the Hill, it has two sets of ramparts and ditches to the south. The inner ramparts possibly date to 300BC. Excavations at Kemerton Camp in the 1930s uncovered, near the entrance to the inner ramparts of the fort, the burial place of some 50 slaughtered men, along with a great number of weapons. Are they evidence of a last stand against the Roman invasion, or of some internecine strife between warring tribes ? Adjacent to Kemerton Camp is a small stone tower called Parsons Folly (or the Banbury Stone Tower) which was built in the mid-18th century for John Parsons, MP (1732–1805), squire of Kemerton Court and intended as a summer house.

Parsons' Folly was built as a folly in the 18th century by Mr Parsons of Kemerton, it is 39 feet high, the summit of Bredon Hill is 961 feet above sea level thus making the top of the folly exactly 1,000 feet above sea level. Spread below is the vale through which both the Avon and Severn, on the horizon are the Malvern Hills.

Also known as the Banbury Stone, there is conjecture about the exact origin of the Elephant Stone. Some believe it to be an ancient focus for the dark arts, others say it was a type of amber stone dedicated to the sun by druids. There's also a superstition that if you kiss the stone on Good Friday you will be cursed with bad luck.

Historic Bredon Hill stands proud in isolation. From its 981-foot (299 m) summit you can gaze out across Worcestershire to the Malverns and south into the rolling Cotswolds. Scenic magnificence. The hill was once an Iron Age hillfort, known as Kemerton Camp and it then became an important Roman encampment. In the 18th century, the squire of Kemerton Court erected a small stone tower, Parsons Folly. A number of ancient standing stones also adorn the hill.

Great views including Malvern. I would imagine Malvern could be great at sunset.
