\u201cEarth science learning for all\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Abberley & Malvern Hills Geopark<\/strong><\/span> As President of the Abberley & Malvern Hills Geopark, I invite you to come and join me as we explore the varied geology of this part of the Heart of England! There are breathtaking views, fine scenery and excellent rocks within the Geopark that extends across 1250 square kilometres and takes in parts of the four counties of Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire and Worcestershire.<\/span><\/p>\n In the Abberley and Malvern Hills Geopark we\u2019ll find outstanding geology that spans 700 million years of Earth\u2019 history. The story begins with Precambrian igneous and metamorphic rocks and then moves on through sediments of all ages, ending with the Triassic desert sandstones of Bridgnorth. We\u2019ll see geology from a steam rain and even animatronic dinosaurs in the Wildlife Safari Park! <\/span><\/p>\n We\u2019ll stay at the centrally located Great Malvern Hotel where we will get well looked after and be able to sample good local food. This is a great opportunity to explore some of the finest geology in England over the May Day Bank Holiday weekend. <\/span><\/p>\n The cost of the 5-night trip is \u00a3695.00 per person in a double\/twin room and \u00a3850.00 for single occupancy. <\/span><\/p>\n We expect this trip to book up quickly – so you are advised to contact us soon for a booking form!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
