It is a short but steep ascent up Wart Hill. With a distinctive conical shape, the hill is crowned by the ring of an Iron Age hill fort. Unfortunately, the remains of this fort are not really visible. However, it is well worth a jaunt up to the summit if passing for views of the Stiperstones and Corndon, Long Mynd and Brown Clee and Titterstone Clee in the east.
