If you're talking about looking from the top of a hill, you'd probably use neither (sorry). "View" is better: "enjoy the view from the top of the hill". This implies looking from a particular place. You can use "outlook", just about, but as Alex says it's quite an unusual use of the word. "Scenery" doesn't imply any particular act of looking, so you could talk about "beautiful scenery" whether you are looking up at it, looking down at it, looking at a picture of it: those would be different views of the same scenery.

Scenery specifically talks about the physical beauty of the outdoors. Outlook can be used for the same purpose, but is a little less common. It would sound more natural to say, "Enjoy the scenery." Usually, outlook is used more often about the future or a person's personal perspective mentally. "He has a negative outlook on life."

Hello Emarbe! The word "outlook" means "personal opinion or feelings about something" so I would say that the correct word is "scenery" as it is the noun describing what you can physically see (particularly from a position that allows you to see a large expanse such from the top of the hill). Another word that would also be okay to use in this instance is "view". But what makes this a bit confusing is that "view" could be used to describe what can be physically seen or "personal opinion or feelings" about something. The word "lookout" is a point or place from which a person can enjoy the scenery or view. I hope this helps!
