I'm working in Strensham for the next 6 months so will bring the bike down at some point - probably the ebike. I'd imagine there's some decent riding to be had, but where is a good starting point?
Cheers
Clocktower carpark on West Malvern Road.
Head South (and UP) from the car park at the rockface turn right..and UP! Pick a direction from the top.
That'll give you a taster..
If you want more 'off piste' head to the other, British Camp, end.
Some official routes: https://www.visitthemalverns.org/things-to-do/cycling/
https://www.malvernhills.org.uk/visiting/cycling/mountain-bike-trails/
Also easily accessible by car, Cwmcarn, Forest of Dean, Costwolds
One end or the other Hollybush nice up there keep away on a sunny weekend packed with walkers more interested on the Cotswolds or Forest Of Dean its a place you do now and again but not that great more interesting to walk up there a lot wont agree with me I live the other side Cheltenham.

As I understand it, if you get cought riding anywhere off the official trainls you will get hit with a fine
This will get you started. Easy to shortcut or extend as required.

Why no trails named on Trailforks for the Malverns... someone should get on it!
Jump on the M50 and head to FoD, much more choice. You’ve got the trail centre XC & DH marked trails and miles and miles of off piste. Head a bit further south to Monmouth, turn left over the river and there’s Staunton and Redbrook as well.
Cheers for the replies. Won't be travelling anywhere, working 12 hour days and home at weekends, so will definitely be staying local
Bredon Hill any good for you ? I know of it, but know nothing of what is there. Hopefully someone else might.
Bredon Hill any good for you
My local hill , happy to show you round, but I'd not be travelling 40mins after a 12hr shift to ride here .
I'm actually staying in Upton on Severn, can see the tops of the Malverns from the pub bench I'm sat on
Happy to show you around the Malverns as I’m a Malverner.
Drop me a pm if you are interested
@astormat - cheers, will let you know if I bring it down 👍
Might be a bit scary for some but around the Upton and Malvern area etc is great for road riding very quite roads and plenty of country lanes might not be your cup of tea.Bredon hill is ok for spin nice up their.
