About Two Mile Bottom

The magnificent beeches lining the A134 at this site provide the setting for one of the most attractive picnic spots within the forest. Despite its proximity to the road, the splendour of the beech canopy affords an atmosphere of peace and tranquility. An open area next to the car park gives opportunities for those wishing to picnic or play during their stay. Here, heather and grasses add a splash of colour and interest for insects such as butterflies and bees, reminiscent of the former Breckland heaths.

The harvesting work on this site is now completed and the yellow walk is now open
