We’re delighted that Pinnacle Hill Path has been shortlisted as a finalist in the Ramblers Britain’s Favourite Path 2026 competition, and it’s the only path in the Midlands to make the shortlist.
This much-loved route is cared for year-round by Malvern Hills Trust, with support from dedicated volunteers as well as local mountain biking groups. Together, we help keep the path accessible by clearing vegetation, improving sight lines and protecting the rare grassland habitats and archaeological features that make this area so special.
Grazing cattle also play an important role, helping to keep the West Pinnacle grassland open by nibbling back vegetation.The path is a key part of both the walking and mountain biking networks on the Hills, while easier-access routes around the western slopes of Pinnacle Hill can also be enjoyed by visitors using Tramper all-terrain mobility scooters.
If Pinnacle Hill Path is one of your favourite places to walk, ride or enjoy the landscape, we’d be grateful for your support.
Vote before 11pm on 31 July:Thank you for helping to celebrate one of the Malvern Hills’ most iconic routes. The winner will be announced before 31 August.
