キンボルトンの絶景の山頂・トップ5

The remnants of a much bigger forest, high on a hill. Very atmospheric place.

You do get a view of the distant Welsh Hills from the summit, but you need to stand on the bench to get a good view as the trees are starting to grow and block it out.

Although originally made up of ancient royal chases and deer parks, the forest we see today was largely planted by the Forestry Commission in the 1920s. It was named after the Mortimer Family, Norman Lords who held power over the region for some 300 years.

Spectacular views, fantastic place

Great views. Nice place for taking a break

This viewpoint, below the summit of Dionscourt Hill at 291m, offers far-reaching vistas out across the Teme valley - a great place to pause for breath after the climb.

The trig point at the top of Hegdon Hill stands at 255m, making this peaceful summit officially a Marilyn. The views out across miles of rolling Herefordshire countryside are well worth the climb, and nearby Hegdon Hill Vineyard is well worth a visit, too.

High Vinnalls is the highest point in Mortimer Forest at 1,230 feet (375 m) and is considered part of the Shropshire Hills family, despite being in North Herefordshire. It rewards hikers with a massive vista of wild Mid Wales to the west, as well as a tick for Marilyn baggers. The Mortimer Trail, a 30-mile (48 km) hike from Ludlow to Kington, passes over the summit.
