A Woodland Adventure Awaits

Join The World Outside and Forestry England for a fun family woodland adventure in the heart of Wyre Forest.

In this hands-on outdoor session, children and their grown-ups will explore the forest together — building woodland dens, discovering fascinating mini beasts, and enjoying with a delicious campfire treat.

These relaxed and engaging sessions encourage curiosity, teamwork, and a deeper connection with nature while enjoying the magic of the woodland.

Perfect for families who love being outdoors and learning new skills together.
