Haldon Forest Park

Whether you want a quiet gentle stroll or an exhilarating mountain biking experience, there’s something for you at Haldon Forest Park. 3,500 acres of woodland just fifteen minutes from Exeter, we are open every day from 8.30am until 7.00pm (as of 10th April 2009). All it will cost you is the price of a parking ticket, so we are sure you will find it great value for money. Everyone is welcome, and our Rangers are on-site daily to give advice and help you get the most out of your experience.
