About Foggieton Blue Trail

This short walk winds its way through an area that blew down a number of years ago and has been replanted with a variety of types of trees. Silver birch has come up across the area as well and it makes for a forest walk with a difference.

See how many plants you can see growing here now there is lots of light.

The path is easy under foot and good for families with young children and buggies. It loops back to the car park after crossing a small bridge.
