Forage around the forest floor & learn about Autumn leaves, nuts, seeds & fungi!

Step 1: Begin at the Woodland Discovery Centre and cafe. To start this walk, look for the 5-star Bug Hotel.

Step 2: Go through the gate, then follow the path to the left and make your way deep into the woods.

Step 3: Look closely and you'll see some pretty epic fungi. This is a type of bracket fungus and it's a mushroom you definitely shouldn't try to eat

Step 4: You should take the path that bears to the right - there are little blue arrows along the route should you feel lost.

Step 5: When you get a fork in the path, just follow the sign for the bridleway...

Step 6: Find yourself a comfy log in a sunny glade and listen out for woodpeckers for a while before continuing on your way.
