The Nesscliffe Hill Country Park includes the main hill as well as the common just to the north. The mixed woodland and heathland are both lovely places to ramble about and make thriving habitats for wildlife.

Within the limits of the country park lies Kynaston Cave. From the summit of the main hill, extensive views across Shropshire and into Wales can be enjoyed. It's particularly spectacular on clear days.
