The location of this park is one of the key factors which draws residents in, it is the perfect location for experiencing untapped beauty and simultaneously getting stuck in with various activity and adventure opportunities nearby.

Also, the park is easy to reach. If you are travelling by car, you should bypass Presteigne on the B4356 and it is just 5 minutes via car on your right-hand side. If you want to reach the park via alternative transport, there is a train station at Knighton, which is a 15-minute taxi drive from the park.
