Route Description for Cumber Forest Park Circular Walk
The Cumber Forest Park Circular Walk is a great option for an outdoor excursion if you are looking for a quick and easy adventure that can be enjoyed by the entire family. The easy to navigate walkways and a pleasant woodland setting really do make for a great afternoon of walking and reconnecting with nature.
Setting out from the car park, you will enter into the cover of the forest and follow the path as it heads to the northeast.
