A Devon Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve
A surprise awaits you in the Redhills part of Exeter. Barley Valley Park allows you to explore 11 hectares of pretty rolling hills and tranquil walks in the setting of a local nature reserve.
About the reserve
Barley Valley Park is one of six Exeter Valley Parks managed by Devon Wildlife Trust.
This western ridge line of the city has splendid rural valleys and offers excellent views of the city.
Barley Valley Park has a patchwork of woods and meadows for you to explore. A network of footpaths and bridleways lead to and from the Valley Park allowing you to extend your visit and explore the farmland fringes of Exeter.
Directions
There are several entrances into Barley Valley Local Nature Reserve that can be found off Higher Barley Mount, at the junction of Bowhay Lane Bridleway and Barley Lane and at the end of Antonine Crescent.
Did you know, a German bomber crashed in the reserve during the bombing raid on Exeter in WW2?
