Dogs are welcome to explore Cardinham Woods. There are plenty of sights, sounds, and sniffs to tire them out. Drinking water and a self-service dog wash are available next to the toilet block.
Please be aware that Cardinham Woods is surrounded by farmland and is home to very special wildlife. Please keep dogs close by and in sight at all times to make sure they stay on official trails and aren't able to stray out of the forest. Read our tips for bringing your dog to the forest.
