Wombwell Wood is a wonderful mature broadleaf woodland, with a range of criss crossing paths. The beech, oak and birch trees turn the wood into lovely place with great autumnal colours. Children really enjoy kicking the carpet of dead leaves which blanket this woodland from late autumn to winter.

From Wombwell High Street take B6096 Hough Lane, west towards Jump. Take first right after Wombwell train station onto Dovecliffe Road. Follow for approximately 1.5 kilometres, the main access point is found on the left hand side of the road.
