Goblin Combe is a breathtaking limestone gorge which was forged by melting snow during the last ice age. The nature reserve is composed of a dark and mystical wooded valley with steep sides and airy grasslands above. There are some terrific viewpoints over the gorge and rocky trails to access them by. The reserve is home to much wildlife. It is perhaps most renowned for butterflies, with more than 30 species recorded. In late summer, the grasslands spring to life with wildflowers.
