Troopers Hill Nature Reserve affords breathtaking views over Bristol and the River Avon. The chimney on top of the hill was used for copper smelting in the 18th century and in the 19th century, coal and fireclay were mined from the hill. These days, the hillside boasts a wonderful mix of wildflowers, wildlife, and history. The park, which has won the Green Flag Award every year since 2007, is a great place for relaxation and recreation.
