Paths lead you through a heathland landscape of gorse and heather. A great place to spot secretive reptiles and nightjars.

Exploring woods

A top wildlife spot, with exceptional walks through woodland and alongside a classic Devon river. Feeling lucky? Otters are often seen at Halsdon!

This small reserve acts as a gateway to the wild landscape of Dartmoor. Bluebells and dormice are the stars of our oldest nature reserve.
