These walks are led by our friendly and knowledgeable volunteers.

Discover some of the notable trees on the estate and consider how they benefit us, the environment and wildlife.

A fascinating insight into the “wood wide web” helps us to understand how trees communicate and support each other.

The walks are free to join, standard admission applies.

All visitors should book their car parking in advance of their visit.

Please note that these walks are dependant on volunteer availability.
