Lovely for children and adults alike. The sculpture trail takes about 20 mins to walk round, two car parks and in sometimes an ice cream van!

Lovely woods, with reasonable car parks. There are a couple of short trails (1-2k), which are very easy to access. Alternatively you can venture off the main paths and go much further. The woods provide great shade on a sunny day. Will definitely visit again.

Wonderful nature reserve with many trails to explore as well as simple circuit walks. A wood carving sculpture trail will give children amusement as well as den building

It's absolutely fantastic ! We don't have to stress ourselves to sort out how to pay for the parking because it's absolutely free! It's indeed a relaxing place to go to !

First time visit on 3 Jan. Enjoyed walking through the woods. You can stick to the main tracks or take alternatives to go down deeper or climb higher. Seems a great place to take your dog for a walk too. Free parking available.

I am fortunate that Broxbourne Woods are on my doorstep it is a wonderful location, for walking, horse riding and the odd cycle ride. A large part of the wood is a managed forest however in recent years there has been some devastation wrought by heavy machines removing trees alongside charming dells on a couple of the streams, but they are now recovering fairly well even so some of the older trails have been obliterated. However, much is still wonderful, Ermine Street passes through the woods northwards to Hertford town and is fairly well used by local riding stables.

Went with 2 friends for a walk which was lovely. I’ve never seen so many mushrooms most of them poisonous but really beautiful. In some parts you feel like your in another country it’s lovely. I definitely would go again, if I can to escape people and pretend I live in a tepee for a afternoon.
