Berry Hill is a prominent hill located in the county of Caithness, in the Highland region of Scotland. Situated near the village of Watten, this hill stands at an elevation of approximately 201 meters (660 feet) above sea level.

Known for its distinctive shape and commanding presence, Berry Hill is classified as a hill rather than a mountain due to its relatively modest height. It is characterized by its gently rounded summit, which offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including the farmlands and rolling hills of Caithness.

The hill is covered in a mix of heather and grasses, with scattered patches of shrubs and trees. It is a popular spot for outdoor enthusiasts, with several walking trails and footpaths that lead to the summit. These trails provide an opportunity for visitors to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the area while enjoying a leisurely hike.

Berry Hill is also home to a variety of wildlife, including birds such as grouse and skylarks, as well as small mammals like rabbits and voles. The hill offers a peaceful and tranquil environment, ideal for nature lovers and birdwatchers.

Due to its location, Berry Hill is easily accessible by road, with parking available at the base of the hill. Its close proximity to Watten village makes it a convenient destination for both locals and tourists alike, providing a charming and scenic escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
