About Hetchell Wood

Full of zigzagging paths to discover, nooks to explore, and sounds and smells all around… a visit to Hetchell Wood is huge fun. This magnificent ancient woodland is a soothing retreat, with the soft trickle of the bubbling Bardsey Beck in the background. A circular walk takes you through a variety of habitats on this undulating reserve, with towering rocky crags, secret pools, and spectacular views of the valley from the top.
