Bedfords Park Dog Walk

Bedfords Park Dog Walk

Bedfords Park is a beautiful historic parkland site of 215 acres. The nature reserve affords fantastic views over London and into Kent and makes for a fantastic day out.

The visitor centre offers access to toilets a shop and café serving refreshments, a picnic area and Wifi.

Of note are the ‘unimproved’ grasslands supporting a wide variety of wildflowers, birds and insects; the mature woodland, the ponds and lake which all provide homes for a fantastic array of wildlife. To the west of the visitor centre you can also find the deer park which is home to a herd of stunning Red Deer.

There are various walking routes accessible around the reserve, and visitors can call into the visitor centre for more details upon arrival but here is our favourite route through the park.

Start:

Exit the car park and walk to way point 2 keeping the trees to your right.

From waypoint 2 to 3 keep the trees on your left and the open space on your right.

Way point 3 to 4 follows a natural path takes you through a stretch of woodland.

Walk to waypoint 5 keeping the trees on your left and open space on your right until you reach the Lake.

Follow the lake around through to waypoint 7.

Walk to waypoint 8 which is the natural break in the trees.

Way point 8 to 11 is the open space surrounded by trees.

Way point 11 brings you back in the woods, follow the natural path and exit at way point 12.

Walk from Way point 12 back to the carpark, where you will pass a children’s playground.

We hope you enjoy the Bedfords Park Dog Walk
