Welcome to Mount Gould

Mount Gould is a stunning hill located in the county of Devon, England. It is situated in the city of Plymouth and is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts. The hill is known for its breathtaking views of the city and the surrounding countryside. It is also home to a variety of wildlife, including birds, rabbits, and foxes. The hill is a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy some peace and quiet in nature.

One of the most unique features of Mount Gould is its history. The hill was once the site of a large military fortification, which was built in the 19th century to protect the city from invasion. The fortification was later abandoned and fell into disrepair, but many of its ruins can still be seen on the hill today. Visitors can explore the old fortifications and imagine what life was like for the soldiers who once lived and worked there.

Another unique aspect of Mount Gould is its accessibility. The hill is easily accessible by foot or by car, and there are several trails that lead to the summit. The trails are well-maintained and offer a variety of difficulty levels, making them suitable for hikers of all skill levels. Once at the summit, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the city and the surrounding countryside, making Mount Gould a must-visit destination for anyone visiting Devon.
