Becky Falls Ancient Woodland Park has been welcoming visitors since 1903. Set in a spectacular ancient valley shaped by the last Ice Age, the park is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) - one of the UK's rare temperate rainforests.
The 70ft waterfall is the centrepiece, with the Becka Brook cascading between huge granite boulders. Three circular trails suit all ages and abilities: the gentle Blue Trail through ancient oak woodland; the Red Trail to the main waterfall; and the more challenging Purple Trail with views of the lower falls.
Keeper Talks, a small zoo with meerkats, giant tortoises, pygmy goats and exotic animals, a woodland café, gift shop and children's nature challenge make this a full family day out. Dogs welcome on leads.

Go deeper with Dartefacts
Dartefacts is a database of Dartmoor sites with far more close-up detail than we can show here, and it is the best place to go deeper. Dartefacts is free to use, and nobody has to pay to look things up. If you want more, a yearly subscription adds 10-figure grid references, map zoom down to 1:25,000 and lists to tick off the places you have visited, and it helps keep the site going. We would encourage you to subscribe.
