There’s plenty of free parking in our grass field just off the A415 Abingdon Road. If it’s been raining, please take care entering and exiting the site and expect mud.

To get the most out of your woodland adventure, we suggest taking about 45 minutes to complete the walk. The trail is approximately 1.2km long. There’s things to spot and an activity sheet to complete along the way, plus various woodland challenges. Don’t forget to enjoy our games and refreshment area afterwards. Most people spend at least two hours on site, although you can stay until we close if you like.

Everyone! Toddlers and primary-aged children will love spotting our woodland creations, clambering over the logs, playing in the dens and working out our forest games. Older children will enjoy the woodland challenges, cracking the secret code word and bale play area.

This is an outdoor event. There will be an open-sided tent in the games and refreshment area with picnic tables to shelter if it rains.
