Haldon Hills, Hill chain near Exeter, England.

The Haldon Hills extend for 24 kilometers between the River Exe and River Teign, forming a natural ridge covered by the 1,500-hectare Haldon Forest Park.

The hills contain remnants of Bronze Age settlements, with 26 identified burial mounds and ancient tracks that Romans later utilized for their transportation network.

The Haldon Forest Park incorporates numerous walking paths, cycling routes, and recreational facilities where visitors participate in outdoor activities throughout the year.

The forest park operates daily from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM with parking fees ranging from £5 for two hours to £9 for all-day access.

Telegraph Hill received its name from the Naval communication system that relayed messages between Plymouth and London during the Napoleonic Wars using semaphore flags.
