Broom Hill is a prominent hill located in the county of Perthshire, Scotland. Standing at an elevation of approximately 300 meters (984 feet), it is considered more of a hill than a mountain. Situated near the village of Dunning, Broom Hill offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and the Ochil Hills to the south.

The hill is easily accessible, with a well-established footpath leading to its summit. The path is well-maintained and suitable for walkers of all abilities, making it a popular destination for both locals and tourists. The ascent to the top is relatively gentle, making it an enjoyable and leisurely hike for those looking to experience the beauty of the Scottish landscape.

At the summit of Broom Hill, visitors are rewarded with breathtaking views that stretch for miles. On a clear day, one can see as far as the city of Perth and the River Tay. The panoramic vista also includes the picturesque rolling hills and farmland that characterize the region.

Aside from its natural beauty, Broom Hill also has historical significance. At the foot of the hill lies the village of Dunning, which is known for its ancient Pictish symbol stone and the ruins of St. Serf's Church, dating back to the 12th century.

Overall, Broom Hill offers a fantastic opportunity to experience the scenic beauty of Perthshire, providing a memorable and enjoyable outdoor experience for nature enthusiasts and history lovers alike.
