Overview

A wander around the tracks and paths through the trees in Savernake Forest.  The route is mainly flat and on a mix of surfaces, which may be muddy in places and no stiles.  Hopefully we will spot some early signs of spring.

Bring refreshments for a short stop. We will be back before lunch.
