A walk to the top of the "Gaer" hill. Once the site of an ancient hillfort, the views from the top of this hill are amazing. From the church walk along the road past Weale's Wheels and towards the bus stop. Before you reach the bus stop, turn right along a muddy track and take the immediate left up another track. You will now be going uphill and passed the backs of some houses. You will arrive at a long steel farmgate. Pass through this and continue up the track. Dogs must be on leads as there are lots of sheep roaming here. Continue up the track for 25 minutes and you will be rewarded with the most incredible views.
