Pleasant loop from Holt Church south to Grimley, then west across the A443 towards Sinton Green, then north up Elm Hill and finally turning east back along the lane to Holt.
Generally easy walking with little elevation and pleasant countryside, but several impassable stretches of overgrown footpaths requiring a bit of bushwacking and literally walking through a hedge backwards.

Hadley Droitwich Circular

Walk down Old Northwick Lane level and easy and down track to car park easy but sometimes uneven and muddy.
The Martley
A lovely circular walk in the Teme Valley through traditional orchards, pastures and ancient woodlands with spectacular views across some of the best countryside in Worcestershire, taking in part of the Worcestershire Way. The walk is indicated by the wheeling ‘Buzzard’ waymark.
Worcester Bridge to Diglis Bridge loop
If you are in Worcester and you have some time to kill, this short, simple but refreshing walk is a fantastic way to do this. Though it is a lovely route to stroll along, I’m sure it is just as lovely to jog it or even cycle it. As it is short and relatively easy, it is also a good walk to do with children.
Hartlebury plus common and viaduct circular
This is an easy circular walk starting either at The White Hart Hartlebury or St. James Church a few yards away across the road.
