Dog-friendly policies:

The woods are very welcoming to dogs, making it a popular destination for dog owners. There are specific areas where dogs can be let off the leads to roam freely, though it's important to keep control of your dog at all times, especially during busy periods or near family areas.

The trails wind through beautiful forested areas, offering you and your dog plenty of space to explore and enjoy the natural environment. There are plenty of places to pause and admire the view.

Choose a trail that matches your and your dog’s fitness level. Some trails might have steep sections or uneven surfaces, so it's a good idea to review the map available at the visitor centre or online before you start your walk.

In addition to hiking and cycling, Wendover Woods offers an orienteering course for families, a children’s play area, and a treetop adventure course. While these activities are more human-focused, they can make your outing enjoyable if you visit with family or friends.

Access and facilities:

Wendover Woods has a large parking area, but it can get busy during weekends and holidays, so arriving early or visiting on weekdays might be preferable. There is a parking fee, which helps maintain the facilities and trails.

The cafe on-site offers a variety of refreshments and light meals, with outdoor seating where dogs are welcome. Additionally, there are barbeque stands and several picnic areas throughout the woods if you prefer to bring your own food.
