Crownley Woods (NT)
Recommended by
Overview
Crownley Wood is a small area of delightful woodland that has been left to develop and flourish naturally with little management. Sessil oak, Ash, Beech, Sweet and Horse Chestnut and Sycamore are all to be found here. There's a circular walk through the woodland, taking in views across to Tuckenhay and Bow Creek a tributary of the River Dart. The woodland can only be accessed through the field at the top of the hill, on a path past the water treatment plant. Please note there is no public access through the houses on the creek edge.
About the area
Devon sums up all that is best about the British landscape, with its magnificent coastlines, two historic cities, the world-famous Dartmoor National Park and south Devon’s glorious English Riviera. A fashionable and much-loved holiday destination, hiking and cycling in the National Parks is extremely popular among visitors, with a great choice of off-road routes.
