Welcome to White Cross Hill

White Cross Hill is a small hill located in the county of Cambridgeshire, England. It is situated near the village of Swavesey and is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts. The hill is known for its stunning views of the surrounding countryside, which includes the Fens and the River Great Ouse.

The hill is also home to a number of rare plant species, including the pasqueflower and the pyramidal orchid. These plants thrive in the chalky soil that is found on the hill, which is also home to a number of other rare species of flora and fauna. Visitors to the hill can enjoy a leisurely walk along the footpaths that wind their way up to the summit, taking in the beautiful scenery and wildlife along the way.

At the top of the hill, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including the nearby villages of Fen Drayton and Over. On a clear day, it is even possible to see as far as the city of Cambridge, which is located approximately 10 miles to the east. Overall, White Cross Hill is a beautiful and peaceful destination that offers visitors the chance to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy the natural beauty of the Cambridgeshire countryside.
