View of Symondsbury and the Sea

Highlight • Natural

Gazing south from the high ridges of Pilsdon Pen, the lush Dorset countryside rolls out toward Symondsbury in a vibrant patchwork of green hills and deep dales. Punctuating the horizon is the unmistakable, tree-crowned peak of Colmer’s Hill, guiding the eye across spectacular views that reach all the way to the coast.

View of Pilsdon Pen

Highlight • Viewpoint

The second-highest point in Dorset, Pilsdon Pen has the remains of an Iron Hill hillfort astride it as well as some magnificent views. By bike, you can get fairly close to the top although the actual summit is only accessible on foot via a footpath. Still, from the lane here you can enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
