Porthkerry Country Park, Barry

Enjoy the great outdoors at Porthkerry Country Park at the end of Cold Knap beach in the Vale of Glamorgan.

With 220 acres of woods and meadowland lying in a sheltered valley leading to a pebble beach and spectacular cliffs, Porthkerry makes for a great family day out with lots of open green space.   It is also very popular with dog walkers.

It has a number of nature trails, picnic sites, a café, and an adventure play area. Picnic tables and benches are situated a short distance from the main car park.

The park is well known for its imposing viaduct which has kept watch over the park since the 1890's.

A great way to explore  is to download the Porthkerry App and bring parts of the park to life as you get out and explore.
