Get to Know Symonds Yat
Symonds Yat is made up of three main areas: East, West and The Rock. They're separated by the River Wye and steep valley sides, which means getting between them isn't always simple. Some parts are linked only by a hand-pulled ferry or a long drive around narrow lanes. Planning ahead helps, especially if you're short on time. Use the guides below to explore each area or read more about Symonds Yat as a whole.
Explore East
Symonds Yat West
A quieter side with riverside paths, woodland walks, campsites and canoe hire. Surrounded by forest, it offers a peaceful base for exploring the outdoors
Symonds Yat Rock
Home to one of the most iconic viewpoints in the Wye Valley, with walking routes that climb through ancient woodland and regular sightings of peregrine falcons.
