レインズアビーウッズ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ7

Above the Chalk Pit in Abbey Wood. Small pond; not as big or scenic as Pine Pond which is the other side of the road that runs up the hill in the woods.

It's a shame that the gates are usually closed - I'd like to look inside. Fabulous woods.

Ancient chalk pit deep in a valley in Abbey Wood; lots of steep hills running either side. Punishing on legs. The end of the pit has a gate which is often closed but it surrounded by paths.

Couldn’t see any chalk as it’s all overgrown.

There are six stunning wood sculptures by Tom Harvey (better known as Carver Harvey) which are situated throughout the woods and park. Harvey uses a mixture of chainsaws and chisels to create large artworks out of tree stumps and trunks. I haven’t found them all yet!

In April and May, the woods are transformed by a beautiful carpet of native bluebells. If you're a bit earlier in the season, (around March) the wild daffodils at Lesnes are believed to be the largest display in south-east England.

Excellent place to vist for a whole day. Great single tracks and plenty of downhill of all levels. Go early or later in day as woods get busy with a park area at bottom. Good kiosh and clean toilets also woods is conveniently located to station and shops. I spend alot of time there since discovering it 😊.
