The forest park overlooks the market town of Otley and is a designated nature reserve

The park's north-facing cliff, or escarpment, rises steeply to a height of 280m above sea level and offers magnificent views of the Wharfe Valley. In recognition of its wealth of wildlife, including the Green Hairstreak Butterfly and the Woodcock, the whole park was designated as a Local Nature Reserve in 1989.

Dogs are welcome, but must be kept under control at all times. Dogs are allowed off the lead, but only if they know to return immediately when called.
