Coppett Hill is one of the most striking features in the Lower Wye Valley, which offers the finest view of the area. Coppett Hill is south of the village of Goodrich, four miles to the south of Ross-on-Wye in Herefordshire.
There are a variety of different habitats; woodland & grassland. Bluebells cover the hill in springtime and it is known as being a great spot to leaf peep the autumn colours. The hill was made naturally by the River Wye cutting through the limestone area with erosion, you can still see lime kilns visible on the eastern side of the hill.
From the east side views towards Ruardean also Lydbrook with the Forest of Dean beyond. From the trig point which is the highest peak of the hill which is some 188 metres high, at the top you can see views to the west over the village of Goodrich to the Black Mountains also views to the north over Ross-on-Wye to the Malvern Hills &Shropshire. Wherever you stand the river is always present.
