[1] Depending on the direction and bus stop you came from, cross over, if necessary, Monteney Road at Monteney Gardens and continue uphill. Shortly, you come to a path to your left. Walk along this path. At the end you come to an A gate – enter Colley Park here. There is a short grassy area you need to cross to get to the park path.

[2] Follow the path around to your left, then gently upwards.From the seat beside the path you can enjoy the variety of trees and bushes and the peaceful green space. Walk on until you reach the top of the park. Ignore the path to your right and follow the path ahead past the football pitches.
