Wareham Forest is a great place to explore and discover the famous heaths and woods of the Dorset countryside.
The Woodlark walking trail is named after the rare ground-nesting birds whose lovely song you may hear on your walk. The paths are good, with only gentle inclines in places, and will lead you through a patchwork of different habitats including open heathland and woodland. Bogs and streams provide vital habitats for many creatures and support a wealth of rare and diverse plant life. They also play an important role in maintaining the health of the forest and absorbing carbon.
Wareham Forest is great for all ages, but perhaps a little overwhelming for the very youngest visitors
