Welcome to Mount Tabor

Mount Tabor is a small hill located in the town of Halifax, West Yorkshire. It is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts due to its stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The hill is approximately 1,000 feet high and is home to a variety of wildlife, including birds of prey and deer.

The hill has a rich history, with evidence of human activity dating back to the Bronze Age. In the 19th century, a quarry was established on the hill, which provided stone for many of the buildings in Halifax. Today, the quarry is no longer in use, and the hill is a protected nature reserve.
