"Plenty of nice long walks to be had. Childrens play area and a visitor centre. They even have the odd joke dotted around the place."
"Very clean with lovely selection of walks and lots of activities. Lots of birds up close."
"Enjoy walking around Sherwood forest, past the Major Oak, our dog Dee enjoys playing ball outside the visitors centre. Always a good walk, cafe serves a good variety of drinks and food to eat in or out."
"A stunning moderate walk to relive the magical history of Sherwood and recall legends of old. To feel the humble awe & power standing in view of the presence of the ancient thousand year old Major Oak tree is an indescribable majestic privilege. The forest itself has such a beautiful peaceful beauty, even if you are not lucky enough to visit away from the usual hustle of busy times, the blanket of serene energy is well worth the visit. Unfortunately, I did find the slight incline (4/500 yards) challenging pushing a wheelchair over such bumpy ground, and we certainly wouldn't have made it to the main attraction without the helpful assistance of a strong volunteer. This was contrary to what I had read in numerous guides and remembered from previous walks from the old car park (now closed), which is definitely a much flatter pathway and half the distance to reach the Major Oak, so not particularly easy for anyone with mobility issues. Personally, I feel the old carpark should be considered to reopen to offer disabled users a more convenient shorter & safer route, as this pathway also had less embedded logs, which can also hinder the route especially for wheelchairs. ♿ Nethertheless a really wonderfully calming experience for families and four legged friends to enjoy and appreciate the wonder of so many ancient trees and nature’s natural beauty."
