Symond's Yat view point

Yat means Gate - but I know not who Symond was! The view point at Symond's Yat allows spectacular views over the river Wye, a mere 7 miles (as the crow flies) from our holiday cottage at Green Bottom. It is a must-visit for anyone in the area.

Access to the viewpoint is by board-walk from the car park: photo 1 shows the board walk with out cat, Misty, enjoying the view. So the viewpoint is disabled and child-friendly. <-P>If you care to descend to the River Wye, a passenger ferry will take you across the river. From there you can climb up into Lord's Wood

To the south of the viewpoint is a huge area of forest which you can explore. Or maybe a walk along by the river to Biblin's Bridge and back on the other side.

Misty enjoys the view from Symond's Yat board walk.	View from Symond's Yat	View from Symond's Yat	View from Symond's Yat
