This is the lesser known viewpoint around Symonds Yat, but just as with Symonds Yat this is a place to visit in the autumn when the trees are in full colour and the sun is on them to make them really shine.

Symonds Yat is a wonderful place to come, but even better to catch it in the autumn when the trees are in full colour, with the sun on them to make them really shine.

Parking on side of the road for two cars. Although a steep climb their are lots of places stop and worth it for the views.

Bridge still closed.

£2 per adult. guy was really nice. the other ferry down the road was 'closed for maintenance' because it had sunk

had wild boar bacon + sausage bap was banging - sauces cost 20p each dont get caught out!

My father F/O A M Phillips was one of the pilots on this flight. I was involved in the unveiling of the memorial. Site is walkable & well worth a visit in a most beautiful place

Yat Rock cafe great coffee and cake in a fantastic location

Great little cafe, good selection and friendly service. And some free dog kibble haha

Full Address, in case someone needs this: Forestry England Symonds Yat Rock Woodlands Road Forest of Dean GL16 7NZ

2024: The Stowfield Viaduct (known also as Black Bridge) is closed! It’s not possible to cross the river Wye!!!

Forestry England pass for Forest of Dean is £48 for year, or England pass is £96. They have installed a number plate recognition camera, and are doing at all their pay and display sites

Great viewpoint gor the river Wye and Goodrich castle.

My great uncle perished in that flight. I've yet to visit the site, but hope to do so this year (2024)

Coppett Hill Common, or Coppett Hill, is a nature reserve covering over 100 hectares of land. It is a mix of woodland and open hillside, with a very wide range of flora and fauna. There are marvellous views of the Brecon Beacons, Clee Hill, and the Malverns to be had from here.

This is one of two hand pulled ferries in the Symonds Yat area. The other one is at the Saracens Head pub. Both ferries at Symond’s Yat are enshrined in locally history and they make up a traditional way of life and will only cost you a bob or two.

Around 2016 Stowfield Viaduct (known also as Black Bridge) closed as it had become unsafe. This was sad news indeed as the old railway bridge formed part of the Wye Valley Walk. It has now been reopened for walkers only by utilising the scaffolding that was used to render it safe to boaters that passed underneath.

Quite a local landmark hereabouts, especially if you are on the river. An ancient crossing point that has been about in one way or another since roman times. An important bridge connection on the Wye that at one stage was tolled. Failure to pay the toll made you liable to a £5 fine. Some things have never changed!

Symonds Yat is one of the most iconic and beautiful locations in the entire Wye valley. It is a kayak, climbing, hiking, canoeing, boating and cycling mecca for active sports people or families alike. I have spent many a sunny afternoon hiking, walking or canoeing through this place. A simply charming village nestled in a deep valley with the East side separated from the West side by a long drive or a short ferry crossing. There is a good Inn here along with a canoe hire centre and there are also toilets on site.
