Hambledon Hill Iron Age hill fort

Highlight • Viewpoint

Hambledon Hill is hailed as one of the best-preserved Iron Age hill forts in Britain and is one of the most iconic Neolithic landscapes in Europe. Towering 623 feet (190 m) above the Blackmore Vale and the River Stour, you are afforded breathtaking views which stretch into the neighbouring counties of Wiltshire and Somerset. The site, which is managed by the National Trust, is also considered one of the best examples of an unimproved calcareous grassland in England and is home to many rare plant and animal species.

View from Hambledon Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great views across Dorset from the trig point and path junction on Hambledon Hill. To the north is the iron age hill fort and burial mounds and you can see Hod Hill to the south.
It's a bit of a climb up to hear from any direction but the descents are fun once you make it.
