5/5)About High Vinnalls Car Park
This car park is the starting point for three walking trails in Mortimer Forest and a great place for a picnic.
There are some simple natural play features here aimed at encouraging imaginative play in the forest and lots of picnic tables.
Please note that there are height restriction barriers at this car park. Visitors with horse boxes need to use the Black Pool car park for which a key is available for purchase from the forest office.
Sorry the Orienteering Course is currently closed for maintenance
