Easy difficulty. Distance 0.5 miles (0.8km)
This is the highest point in the Blackdown Hills, from here you can see spectacular views across the Vale of Taunton. On a clear day you can see all the way to Wales!
As the name suggests, Staple Hill Easy Access Trail allows everyone, including those with limited mobility, to enjoy the beautiful countryside the Blackdown Hills National Landscape has to offer. The kissing gates are big enough for wheelchairs and pushchairs, there is a wide, compacted pathway with no steep gradients and the viewpoints have picnic benches and seating.
Staple Hill is part of the Forestry England woodlands and one of the points on the Staple Fitzpaine Herepath.
The woodland at Castle Neroche is great fun for your family to explore – including your four-legged friends! Peek through the trees for spectacular views.
