Situated on the edge of the [[Pennines]], Colne has views of several well-known hills. [[Boulsworth Hill]], which lies on the boundary between Lancashire and [[West Yorkshire]] overlooks the town from the south. From the summit of [[Noyna Hill]] to the north, close to the village of [[Foulridge]], it is possible to look out across much of East Lancashire and into the [[Yorkshire Dales]]. [[Blacko]] Tower (Stansfield Tower) is clearly visible to the north west, across White Moor, which forms the long eastern slope of [[Weets Hill]].

The hamlet of [[Wycoller]], off the road to [[Haworth]], is the focus for the Country Park of the same name. Although traffic free (visitors must park outside the village), the peace and tranquility is often broken in the summer months as tourists are drawn to the visitor centre alongside the ruined hall. From here a network of footpaths and bridleways pass through the ford or cross Wycoller Beck on a series of ancient bridges, up to 1,000 years old.{{cn|date=September 2024}} A series of circular walks traverse the lower slopes of Boulsworth Hill, whilst the long distance Bronte Way passes through en route to Haworth.

Colne is approximately 5 miles east of [[Pendle Hill]], arguably the most well-known local landmark. Owing to its association with the [[Pendle witch trials|Pendle witches]], many local people walk up the hill, but particularly at [[Halloween]]. Several nearby farmhouses are reputed to be haunted, and have featured on the TV programmes ''[[Most Haunted]]'' and ''[[Most Haunted Live!]]''
