    Lovely views from the top, full of history. It's nice when you get up to just relax and take the views in and imagine what life would be like for those that previously lived up there. The hike up is fine, I don't recommend it on a really hot day like I did, it really takes it out of you as there is no shade the whole way up. It does get a bit steep on the way up but it is easily manageable. I would definitely do this walk again.

    Nice walk, great views. There is easy access with a carpark at the bottom of the hill.

    This place is an excellent spot for hiking - the views are amazing. When you reach the top, you'll see massive piles of stones that stretch out for hundreds of meters. These stones are the leftover remains of an ancient hill fort that's been around for at least 3,000 years. The path up to the summit is not too difficult, curving around the mountain in a spiral shape. As you climb, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy the stunning views from every angle.
