Sherwood Pines Forest Park
Nottinghamshire

Sherwood Pines Forest Park is situated off the B6030 quite close to Old Clipstone (now known as Kings Clipstone). All walks and cycling trails start at the Visitor Centre, it is a great day out for all the family. Close to the Visitor Centre is an adventure playground and a picnic site, there is even a barbeque site near the car park. The visitor centre provides a shop, food, drink and information, close by is a cycle hire centre.

One of the main cycle trails

  The quickest way to get around the forest is to hire a bicycle or bring your own

There are paths throughout the forest for walkers and cyclists

This small clearing in the forest has a pond and picnic area

Walking in the forest is a pleasure,
as well as pine trees there are oak and birch trees too.

Some of the things to see in the forest, fungi, blackberries, acorns and butterflies.

Walking through the forest I was surprised to find this large pond.............

................complete with water lilies

Back near the visitor centre another walk beckons.........maybe another day.
