Hiking

This is a very pleasant woodland walk. At the right time of the year, you will see bluebells and wild garlic. Green, peaceful, and some an interesting carved wooden owl on the way!

Hiking

Do read the signs rather than assuming as I did.. it's a permissive footpath, not a bridleway despite initial appearances. Stick to the road if you're cycling!
If I'd been out for a walk or trail run, they're beautiful surroundings!

Hiking

The wood is part of a larger circular trail, including Kirkham Priory and the River Derwent, offering varied scenery and views. Very easy forest track running through the centre of the wood.
