Hemsted Forest

Reviewed By hawkes2an - Cranbrook, United Kingdom

In this time of lockdown, Hemsted Forest is just the ideal place for taking your exercise and walking your dog at the same time. The paths are well marked and easily negotiated. And the forest is so big that it is very easy to maintain social distancing. Peaceful and not claustrophobic, it's just the place and for observing nature and filling your lungs with clean air.

Comfort's Wood

Reviewed By hawkes2an - Cranbrook, United Kingdom

This is a little-known spot and a great place for walking but, unfortunately, there is not a large space for parking (some may call that a blessing). The paths are well founded and signed but get a little boggy in wet weather. You can just lose yourself in nature and enjoy the peace and quiet.

RSPB Reserve Blean Woods

Reviewed By richardellis1966

This is a popular place for locals for a reason. The woods are well managed and you see the variety of woodlands at different phases of management. We love this place. Walk there if you can as parking is limited.

King's Wood

Reviewed By hollydolly666 - London, United Kingdom

We visited here and it is absolutely beautiful. One of the most beautiful woods I have ever been to. We took our two dogs the only thing that would improve the walks would be dog waste bins, we didn’t see one at all. It was a glorious day, we walked 3 miles and we will def be returning.
