Hover[edit]
Hover is a mode of movement similar to flight, except that the hovering creature can not fly higher than its natural reach. A creature with a natural reach below 5 feet is treated as having a reach of 5 feet for the purpose of hovering.
A hovering creature cannot clear objects taller than its reach. A hovering creature is unimpeded by any form of terrain so long as it is sufficiently level to not possess outcrops taller than its reach. Creatures that hover do so with a certain level of maneuverability (see Fly), but they can always hover in place regardless of maneuverability.
A creature which has both hover and flight can choose to hover at any altitude it can sustain, regardless of maneuverability.
