Dundon Hill or Dundon Beacon is a Iron Age hill fort and nature haven. Managed by the Somerset Wildlife Trust this small area of higher land is ringed by ancient oak woodland and capped with a meadow. The views from the southern end of the plateau are far reaching across the levels where you get a gap in the trees.

A Site of Special Scientific Interest and owned by the National Trust, Walton Hill was quarried in the middle ages and is now a thriving habitat for butterflies and other plants and wildlife. The hill rises above the relatively flat landscape with a summit at 269 feet (82 m) that offers excellent views. At the western end stands an old windmill, now a private residence.

Rising above the village of Burrowbridge, this wonderfully named hill is a scheduled monument and is home to a Grade I listed ruined church on its summit. At 79 feet (24 m) high, it stands out from the flat land around and can be seen easily from the River Parrett Trail which passes by. Thanks to the Somerset Levels winter floods, Burrow Mump becomes somewhat of an island, like its cousin, Glastonbury Tor. A Norman motte and bailey castle was originally constructed here, but the only structure that remains is the impressive medieval church.
