Buckler's Forest — Attraction in Crowthorne

A word of advice for anyone wanting to visit here who doesn't live local.

The loop around the forest is a nice one, it's not particularly far so I wouldn't say it's a long route or a hike as it's a mostly flat but pretty walk, very popular with dog walkers,joggers and bikes so is often busy, so be prepared to meet other dogs if your woof isn't as keen. The walks themselves are great, there's viewpoints and information around the way to read and sometimes interact with which is popular with the kids. Small lake/large pond for the dogs,water is usually all safe. Few picnic benches available. Nice simple area and very...
