New Covert Wood

The weather has been great the last few days so now it's the weekend it's time to get out and VisitWoods!

I had a quick look at my To-Do list and the New Covert wood right on the Brampton Valley Way caught my eye so after a quick look on Google Maps I headed off to find somewhere park up and go for a walk!

There is a small free car park at Kelmarsh Station on the Brampton Valley Way disused train line which is now a fantastic walk so this is where I parked my car.

I spotted on the map that the New Covert wood is right next to one of the disused tunnels that you can walk/cycle through so I made sure that I took my torch with me so I can take a quick wander through that after my walk around the woods.

The New Covert wood is a privately owned wood that is open to the public and if you're going for a walk or cycle then it's a perfect place to stop for a picnic as when you enter the wood you are straight away greeted with a picnic table!

It's a fairly small wood but there's plenty of room to go off exploring through the trees.  This time of year you'll see lots of Bluebells in this wood so it's well worth a visit.
