Have you been down to your woods today?
More than 70 per cent of all adults have visited British forests in the last few years. They make around 300 million day trips from their homes to forests each year, and that's more than people visit Britain's beaches. Forests provide opportunities for walking, cycling, horse riding, orienteering, camping, caravanning, fishing, birdwatching and a whole host of other activities enjoyed by people of all ages.
To make the most of your visit, find places to go and things to do by following the links in the left menu to 'recreation' and 'wild woods'.
We also encourage private woodland owners to manage their forests for public access and provides grants to those owners to help pay for those activities.
