Managed by Forestry England, Symonds Yat Rock is a viewpoint well known for its picturesque views, trails linking to the River Wye, range of circular walks into the forest, and bird-watching. Choose from a selection of five walking trails or choose to take the cycle route by bike.
The area has a deep history and an ancient hill fort sat at the clifftop that provided a great vantage point for its Iron age inhabitants, who built the fort 2,500 years ago. The site is now a certified ancient monument.
Its high viewpoint also makes for a brilliant place for bird-watching, being one of the best places in the country to watch Peregrine Falcons. However, with a little patience, you might also spot Goshawks, Sparrowhawks, Buzzards, Tawny Owls, the list goes on
