Broad Down in the Malvern Hills is a hill of 958 feet mainly on the Worcestershire side of the hills, forming the south side of the curve of hillsides all around the dip in which the British Camp Reservoir lies.

Broad Down is south of Tinkers Hill and north of Hangman's Hill, and south-east of the Herefordshire Beacon and Millennium Hill.

On the south-west side of the hill, as it reaches the county boundary, the hillside descends in a sharp escarpment down to the News Wood.
