Explore Micheldever Wood
(Average user rating: 5 unrated 4.7/5)

A large maturing beech wood with some areas of mature conifer and a stunning bluebell display in the spring.

There is a waymarked trail that goes from the car park and guides the visitor to sites of archaeological interest. 
The walk takes about 30 minutes, stout footwear required in wet conditions.

Spectacular carpet of bluebells invading the forest right now! Spotted 2 deers roaming the forest while taking photograph. Absolutely amazing experience!

Are the blubells out fully yet

young, 5/May/2013

The bluebells came out over the weekend at Micheldever but it will be another week or two before they are in full bloom. We hope you enjoy this year's display.

took granchildren on monday, a lovely walk apart from dog poo, a dog poo bin would be handy, then dog owners may clear up after their dogs.
