Basing Wood
Basing Wood is a light, airy ancient woodland on the northern edge of Basingstoke, Hampshire, where broadleaf and conifer trees old and young shelter a surprisingly rich web of wildlife. Managed by Forestry England and open free from dawn to dusk, it offers three easy waymarked walking trails, a natural pond, a forest meadow, picnic benches and a nature play area, making it a favourite local escape for families, dog walkers and anyone wanting to slip into the trees without leaving town.
