Bilberry Hill is one of the Lickey Hills southwest of Birmingham and northeast of Worcester.
Positioned above the village of Cofton Hackett, it’s an integral part of the Lickey Hills Country Park. As part of the Lickey Ridge, composed of hard quartzite this spot offers stunning views over Birmingham and the surrounding countryside.

The hill derives its name from the abundant tracts of Bilberry bushes (Vaccinium myrtillus) that occupy its slopes, providing locals with a tradition of harvesting their fruit each autumn for centuries to make jams, preserves, and delightful apple and bilberry pies.

Just a short walk from the car park and easily the jewel in the Lickey crown.
