    Tips

    Cycling

    Like most other hillforts the advice is to not mountain bike on the ramparts, but there are bridleways, paths and farm tracks to get you up here.

    Hiking

    Hillfort ramparts were massive defensive walls of earth, stone, and timber built during the Iron Age. These tiered embankments, often topped with wooden palisades and deep outer ditches, served as both formidable fortifications and powerful symbols of tribal status.
