Easy to find, lovely place to take the dog, well kept pathways, some lovely wildlife to see and information boards en route with birds to look out for. Swans, moorhens, ducks, song thrush, finches etc to see. Nice walk and would return.

Beautiful nature reserve. Loads of benches and places to sit, eat your packed lunch and enjoy the scenery and listen to the song birds. The people in the visitor's centre were lovely too.

Amazing park, to visit with kids and pets for a walk. For a fresh air and some picnic, just visit Oare Gunpowder park!

We love it here, nice quiet walks. Disabled toilet. Small carpark that is free to park in. History boards to read. Ducks and swans to spot. Very shady. Benches for picnics.
You will need Welly boots if visiting in the colder months. Lovely place to visit in all seasons and to see nature changing.
Most paths are suitable for buggies and wheelchairs as we have bought both through ourselves.

Fantastic place to explore, having returned to Faversham for a holiday having moved out over ten years ago it was amazing to bring my children to the woods where I played as a child. And to learn about all the ruined buildings we used to play in as children wondering how we never has any serious accidents 😉

Excellent place to go for a walk. It has history, nature, toilets, picnic tables etc. Car park is a bit tiny but there is free parking on road nearby. And the walk is a nice loop.

was a beautiful calm walk with lots of information and exploring to do was a little muddy but easy to deal with most paths are wooden and you have 3 yes 3 choices of where to walk guided by posts with different coloured bands round them depending on terrain and ability, so very well suited for many different abilities and ages ,so bravo 👏🏼 to them , we took a 13,14 & 17 year old out for this walk and they had fun with reading the information boards & online there is an educational pack of History,a checklist and mini beasts adventures ,(bug hotels , beehives on site) so go check that out too ,
for us it was a good couple of hours spent out in the fresh air parking was reasonably easy there is onsite parking and maybe a little difficult in sunnier weather and may have to find alternatives, highly recommend to all ages and has the educational experience as well
happy travelling

One of my favourite places to go as a family. My children never get bored of it here. So much space to explore. Peaceful too. Can see the local wildlife. My children like to feed the swans. A lovely walk through the woods
