Your Challenge
WWF is excited to have teamed up with Forestry England to create Feel Good Forest Trails, a fun and engaging way to get outside, get active, and discover the magic of nature with the family. Designed especially for families with children aged 6–12, each trail is packed with forest-themed activities that spark curiosity and encourage learning.
They’re perfect for keeping both little and big imaginations inspired! Anyone can go along and walk a trail at any of the Forestry England locations to reconnect with nature. Find one near you here.
