Blean Woods National Nature Reserve

Car park is quite small and watch out for the speed bumps on the way in, they are a bit vicious. The park itself is really lovely and there are a number of routes which are colour coded so you can choose the distance of your walk, we did the red route and it was easy to navigate, if I didn't get lost, no one will! The paths wind through the park and there are some lovely plants to be found. Really dog friendly, our dog loved it and made some friends on the way. There is no toilet facilities or anywhere to get drinks so make sure you come prepared!

Decided to have a walk through Blean Woods firstly a very pleasant walk but long with a lack of benches on route.
We walked about 4 miles if not more and came across 2 seats.
On a hot day it’s nice to sit and take a breath before setting off again but sadly nothing around.
Great walk though if you’re pretty fit mainly level with a slight incline but that’s it.
Quite a few tracks to follow easy to get lost.
Good for dog walks but didn’t come across any loos on route which can be a nuisance obviously.

Really lovely place for a Sunday walk. Covers a huge area so lots of points of entry. It is a managed wood so good footpaths and wide routes We paid to park in the East carpark £2 all day. Bring your wellies as sometimes the wet ground gets churned up by working vehicles.

We really enjoyed our time in the woods today (Sat 29th Oct), with our daughter, son in law and their small dog.
It would of been 5 stars. But we felt there should of been on the specified dog routes , dog bins.We did not pass any!

A really beautiful place to walk in the woods. The 5 waymarked trails are clearly signposted making it very easy to follow.

There's a specific dog-walking route for between April and July. Online it says dogs are to be kept on lead on lead but there are no signs on site and many dogs were off leash.

There are no toilets or other facilities on site. When we visited there was only 1 bin in the small car park, which was overflowing with litter all over the floor. The only dog bin was at the end of the driveaway, far away from the woods.

Beautiful piece of nature! Such a cool place to go for a walk with the family, there's also a longer path for a nice hike around the whole thing! Can't wait to go back and explore more

Pleasant walking routes through this ancientwoodland. Ideal for both short and longer walks. Clearly marked.

Car park available. No amenities or facilities. Come prepared and take your litter home!

Lovely walk through the woods. A variety of trails to pick from, a bit muddy, but it’s easy to avoid.
