Train Ride to Great Malvern & Climbing up to the Worcestershire Beacon!

[@hadz8671]

I live in Malvern and often take the hills for granted - thank you for reminding me how beautiful the area is. Also, I had to chuckle at "Worcestershireshire".

[@GLovesTrains]

Haha its a lovely area!

[@FarmerMarrow]

The references to Worcestershireshire and Gloucestershireshire really had me doubting myself for a moment there 🙃🤣

[@androandrejevic3002]

I went to Great Malvern today and climbed up the hills to the Beacon. Wow, what a view!

[@spark_6710]

WOW !!! WHAT A VIEW !! 😍👍👍👍I had planned to visit there ,but I didn't ! I'll definitely visit there someday !!! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞

[@glendipple]

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks Glen, and sounds amazing!

[@richardsanders7906]

I used to drive through there regularly on National Express at one time.

[@Sim0nTrains]

Great Malvern Station has just been refurbished as well but it is a great looking station and that must be one hell of a climb to the top. Great video G

[@GLovesTrains]

Didn't know it was refurbished, its such a good looking station tho 👍

Excellent vlog. Great Malvern is a nice place surrounded by beautiful scenery.

[@SeanRound-o2t]

Hi G have been following your channel for ages and really enjoyed this video. Like your bubbley and enthusiastic delivery. As a resident of Hereford I have been to and passed through Great Malvern Station many times. Its a great little station! The views from the Malvern Hills are spectacular! Keep up the excellent work and I look forward to many more of your reviews ❤

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks very much!!

[@chrisshipman6253]

Nice to see the Wrekin (my local hill) marked on the toposcope. I've often stood at the top of the Wrekin looking at the Malvern Hills. Easy to pick out on a clear day.

[@titanbengal]

Excellent video that was gloves, we really enjoyed this one. I'll definitely be taking the family to Malvern for a day trip in the next few weeks. Many thanks for sharing 👍

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks a lot!

[@bobbythomas200420032]

A great video and the Malvern Hills are spectacular and Malvern looked loved the town and I liked the look of the train station awesome architecture. The view you got from the top of the hill so amazing.

[@davefrench3608]

Wow, what a beautiful place.

[@davidaarthur]

Looks beautiful, and such a cute station! I really only just discovered Malvern, with last week's episode of Mark Steel's in Town.

[@nigelt1218]

Following on from your excellent vlog. Looking up trains to Great Malvern from my local station. Fantastic views.

[@GLovesTrains]

Ye I'd recommend a visit!

[@jackreed4271]

Absolutely brilliant video G! I haven’t been to Great Malvern in years but the station itself is just magnificent and that looked like a trek up the hill and the views are just incredible, glad you enjoyed the day and another 196 ride and also teasing a climb up Ben Nevis in the future! 😮. Overall another great view 👍🏻

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks a lot! Just waiting for hotel prices to go down a bit before I go up there 😂

A marvellously happy, cheery video ! . What a revelation that was - charming streets and the hill climb was superb- you really do deliver an enjoyable experience for your viewers- thanks !

[@GLovesTrains]

Glad you think so, thanks very much!

[@QALibrary]

3:50 I have never seen such a clean station - someone is taking their job seriously

[@Brian3989]

It is only a recent clean up and paint job that makes the Great Malvern station look so grand. Picturesque old town, but you have to remember it is built on side of a ridge of hills. There used to be a train service from Southhampton or Bournemouth via Bristol Parkway to Malvern. Not checked if it still runs.

[@ChristopherPin]

The journey is worth it just for the views😊 amazing to hear how old the station is though as well 😯

[@GLovesTrains]

@@ChristopherPin aye beautiful views!

[@ianbolton9309]

Brilliant blog G nice ride on the 196 to a fantastic station of Great Malvern and to top it off wonderful walk on the Malvern hills to the beacon 👌🙂

Ber you ti full 😀

[@ReecesTrains]

Great video, G! You are tempting me into those Class 196 trains, they're so nice inside!😂 I've never been to Hereford before and Great Malvern before, but it looks like a lovely place! Oh, I like the rock music added into the video too!

[@GLovesTrains]

@@ReecesTrains haha ye you'll have to come ride some! Thanks Reece 😀

[@theshowmanuk]

Great vid G. Love those hills, great stunning views, lovely station.. Super.

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks very much 😀

[@markstramtrainbuscapades1729]

One heck of a climb, isn't it? Lovely area, though! And a lovely line, though it actually gets more scenic beyond Great Malvern, lovely station thought that is! After leaving Great Malvern, the line tunnels under the hills and emerges at Cowell, in Herefordshire, which some say is a beter station for walking the hills. Then it's on through Ledbury, a lovely station where I happily spent nearly an hour a few months back, after just missing a train!

[@GLovesTrains]

Oh that sounds lovely! Look forward to riding 😀

[@christianpatton1852]

Love the beautiful English Victorian railway stations and what a gorgeous view from the top of the hill at 5:54 love it wonderful video!

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks a lot!

[@MichaelSebastianTodd]

Great Mlavin looks like a lovely town to visit & im loving the station which looks gorgeous & i wouldnt mind paying a visit one day & the views from the hills look amazing brilliant vlog

[@GLovesTrains]

@@MichaelSebastianTodd absolutely gorgeous station!

[@jackchapman5052]

Great malvern looks like a lovely town to visit and I love the station which it is stunning because you can get from London Paddington or Birmingham new street because additional services are required by GWR from Hereford

[@carlwilson1772]

That was a brilliant film G. Malvern looks lovely and that was a great climb.

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks!

[@geoffbrookes4594]

Well done G. If you should go again, go one stop further down to Colwall, over the bridge, straight across the fields attack Worcester Beacon from the South West. My favourite walk., saves you having to retrace your steps. Nice Wetherspoons or the lovely Bluebird Tea Room back in Great Malvern, the perfect day out. This sort of blog is you at your best. x. 🚂🚴‍♂️👣🇺🇦

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks a lot, was a great day!

[@christopherbraiden6713]

[@andywillis2650]

Looks a fantastic place & station, well done on reaching the top !

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks!

[@stephenreardon2698]

Spent much of my childhood climbing to the top of the Beacon, usually going up from the other side to the route you took. Still visit the town almost once a month, though it has been almost 15 years since I last went 'up top'.

[@camotech1314]

Such a cute and happy person, love the videos! ❤️

[@MrGreatplum]

Great video, G! Great Malvern looks stunning!

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks!

[@kevinfitzpatrick444]

Next to that cafe on the way up theres a fountain for Malvern spring water

[@iank-dz6gg]

Wow. I have just watched Steve Marsh & Alicja climb Ben Nevis. Now you up a steep hill too. I"m exhausted! lol

[@MrGreatplum]

I’m frankly surprised they are over the hangover from their Canadian pub crawl! 😂

[@GLovesTrains]

Lol!

[@Kulla1berg]

Nice to see you are doing train and hike again

[@djtraxxehv1058]

Indeed a lovely railway station in Great Malvern, Gloucestershire. It actually dates from the days of the Great Western Railway(GWR), which was the railway company on the way to the 'English Riviera' in Cornwall. The details regarding that are certainly around, for example the benches.

[@GLovesTrains]

Yes love benches like that!

[@Anonymoususer_8823]

I have heard that Great Malvern is very beautiful and I would like to go there. Very nice area I have to say.

[@KeithPatmore]

Stunning hope you stopped in the cafe at the bottom for some tea..😊

[@QALibrary]

Malvern Hills Golf course is one of the best golf courses I ever played

[@craiggilchrist4223]

You came through where I live in Kings Norton.

[@ReubenAshwell]

Brilliant video G, I've not been down to Great Malvern station yet, it does look amazing. I have been up the Worcestershire beacon back in 2016, it's a bit of a hill to climb but worth it for the views. :)

[@GLovesTrains]

Thanks Reuben, sure is worth it at the top 😀

[@peterdnreynolds777]

Beautiful scenery

[@Gaspode_]

Great video, thanks! It looks like a beautiful town. The Ben Nevis climb is just over 4 times that climb in elevation. Great Malvern station is approximately 85 metres above sea level, so it's only(!) about 325 metres elevation difference from the station to the top of the beacon. I need a rest and a cup of tea after watching that :)

[@GLovesTrains]

Oh yeah thats a good point! 😂

[@peternelson6142]

Really love your videos. Another great little station is Kemble

[@GLovesTrains]

Kemble thanks!

[@ElijahsTransport]

Great video!

[@GLovesTrains]

Cheers!

[@iana6713]

Great Malvern Station is incredibly well-maintained, and such an attractive building. Those Victorians knew a thing or two about architecture, didn't they? You certainly got lucky as far as the weather is concerned for your hill climb, and those views are stunning!

[@GLovesTrains]

Oh yes it felt like summer that day! 😂

[@iana6713]

@@GLovesTrains I'll bet! Need to do something like this myself.

Quite an easy climb is Worcestershire Beacon and further west you have Herefordshire Beacon which is a bit lower but has an Iron Age hill fort atop it.

Easy?!?!! 😂

I really want to know what you were listening to on the train!!! And good luck with the Ben Nevis climb. We did it a couple of years ago and it's was amazing, but so exhausting. Took us about 8 hours in total. Good luck with the training.

I'm due a return visit to the Malvern Hills, think it's been almost ten years! 😟 I'll do it in September when the sprogs have gone back to school I think. 😅 Edit: I didn't know you can get there direct from New Street these days. IIRC it was Bruce Lee to New Street then walk to Moor Street back in the day. Might have dreamt that though
