Feel Good Forest Trail at Cannock Chase
Connect with nature and feel good
We've been working with WWF to create a new, interactive family-friendly trail that provides an exciting way to get your daily dose of nature whilst learning about the great outdoors at the same time.
What to expect on the trail
Themed panels along the trail are designed to spark curiosity and adventure, complete with fun activities to help children explore the wonders of England's forests and compare them to the Amazon rainforest. With every step, you'll find new ways to experience and appreciate the natural world together.
You can also download our free Feel Good Forest activity pack before you visit.
