The walk

Robinswood Hill Walk

On the edge of Gloucester lies the lovely Robinswood Hill, a 250 acre hilltop country park. It offers a wonderful mix of lush greenery, wildflower meadows, woodland and rich wildlife.

With a vast network of paths throughout the park, there is plenty to explore and with a bit of energy, you can hike to the summit which is almost 200 metres above sea level. Once there, you can enjoy 360 degree panoramic views for miles around.

There is also a cafe and picnic site if you want to make a day of it.

Walker review

Robinswood Hill is a beautiful walk with lovely views. Lots of inclines to the top. Lovely cafe

Walker review

Go clockwise due to first very steep slippy section when muddy, nearly slipped back down.
