Welcome to Mount Hill

Mount Hill is a small hill located in the county of Gloucestershire, England. It is situated near the town of Wotton-under-Edge and is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts. The hill offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside and is home to a variety of wildlife, including birds of prey and deer.

The hill is also steeped in history, with evidence of human activity dating back to the Neolithic period. There are several ancient burial mounds on the hill, as well as the remains of an Iron Age hillfort. In the Middle Ages, Mount Hill was used as a hunting ground by the local nobility, and there are still traces of the old deer park that once covered the area.

Today, Mount Hill is a peaceful and tranquil place, perfect for a leisurely walk or a picnic with friends and family. The hill is easily accessible by car or on foot, and there are several well-marked trails that lead to the summit. Whether you are a seasoned hiker or just looking for a relaxing day out in the countryside, Mount Hill is definitely worth a visit.
