Dunster Black Hill

Description

Black Hill circuit is one of several waymarked trails set up by the Crown Estate in Dunster forest. It climbs, mainly through woodland, from Nutcombe Bottom to the top of Black Hill where there are good all round views. On the return, the trail passes some Iron Age forts on Gallox Hill. Much of the trail is on forest tracks but there are some narrow footpaths and width restrictions in places. A short section has five steps (see below).
