Parking and prices
We have reopened our car parks but at reduced capacity. Please be aware you may need to be prepared to make the necessary decision to turn around if the car park is full, and come another time.
When you visit the nation’s forests, remember it is your responsibility to follow the new guidance on staying safe outside your home. We are cleaning our car parking machines throughout the day but for your own safety please bring hand sanitiser with you to use after touching the machines.
If you are uncomfortable with the idea of touching the car park payment machines, you can pay for car parking using the Glide app on your Apple or Android mobile phone or you may want to consider becoming a member. As well as supporting the forest you will receive a 12 month car park pass. Find out more.
Parking Charges
| Up to 2 hours | £2.50 |

Additional Information
Facilities and access
Currently, not all of our visitor facilities are open. We are working hard to find a way to start to reopen our other facilities but will only do so when we are happy that it is safe for our visitors and staff alike and that the social distancing advice of staying 2 metres apart from other people is possible. Please support us as we are doing our best for you: be kind to our staff and your fellow visitors.
Wendover Woods is a bin free site. We do not have the resources to remove rubbish as soon as it’s deposited and this leads to an increase in vermin and pests like rats, wasps, crows and glis glis. Please take your litter home with you.
