Location for a picnic

Always great views no matter what the weather

Marvellous views over the Severn Vale and further into Wales. Sugarloaf is easily visible on a clear day.

Nice views

Some wonderful views in all directions... The Cotswolds' Crib Goch... though not as scary! 😀

Downham Hill, known locally as "Smallpox Hill is an outlying hill from the surrounding Cotswold escarpment, separated by a small valley. It offers perhaps some of the best view in the valley if not the Cotswolds! Due to the physical nature of the hill it lent itself to being a Smallpox isolation hospital during the 18th and 19th century, making it one of the earliest isolation hospitals in the country. It is believed that the hospital played a roll in Edward Jenner’s studies of the disease, and aided his eventual discovery of the Smallpox vaccine.

Once an important line of defence on the edge of the Cotswolds, Horton Camp is now hidden amongst the rolling hills. Built during the Iron Age, you can still find the the curved rampart and ditch. The camp is under management of the National Trust and a popular with hikers and nature lovers. The flowers and lambs are particularly lovely in spring.

Nice climb... 😅. Suggest to include cam peak .. which you can miss out on on Cotswolds Way

You are afforded spectacular views from Coaley Peak, which stretch right across the Severn Vale towards the Forest of Dean and beyond. Below the summit lies unimproved limestone grassland, owned and maintained by the National Trust.

After you look out over the Severn Vale, head to the far left of the escarpment where you will find a gate and a second viewpoint.

Stunning views over the Severn valley
