Worth the climb. A beautiful, get away from it all walk, ideal for dogs and kids. It's very rural so you won't see crowds or ice cream vans. The climb is in a woods and not too steep. It's more meandering but it's high up there. It's fascinating to see the Iron Age settlement on the pre historic hill fort and to be able to walk around the perimeters and see the amazing views. There are many different directions to walk at the summit and a picnic would be great in warm weather.
