Mincinglake Valley Park

Managed by Devon Wildlife Trust, Mincinglake Valley Park is a peaceful green escape on the edge of Exeter, offering a wonderful mix of woodland, wildflower meadows, streams and open parkland. Despite being close to the city, it feels surprisingly tranquil, with plenty of space to wander and explore.

The park has a network of paths and trails, making it ideal for both short dog walks and longer adventures. Follow the stream through shady woodland, explore open meadows, or head up towards Stoke Hill for beautiful views across Exeter and towards the Exe Estuary.

  • Free parking available at Stoke Hill and Calthorpe road entrances
  • Multiple access points around the park
  • Varied terrain, surfaced paths, grassy tracks and some steep sections
  • Circular routes
  • Plenty of benches and scenic viewpoints
  • No toilet facilities on site

A beautiful and varied walk that offers a real countryside feel right in the heart of Exeter.
