Lovely walking trails, good parking in the main car park with café and toilets. Generally well marked routes but signs missing in a few areas so take photo of map before you set out, just to be safe!. Lovely Room on the Broom route too and also has a children's playground.
Very nice forest eith 3 walking trails, the most famous being the UFO trail. Paid car park which has ANPR so if you drive in you have to pay as if you just drive out you will be charged the full daily rate. There is a kiosk for food and drink plus playground,toilets and a campsite.
The walks around the forest were lovely. My children enjoyed the play areas on the discovery trail, and we also did the Room on the Broom trail which was okay although fairly long for little legs. The drinks hut staff were friendly and efficient given that it was a bank holiday and they had non stop orders. The parking is very expensive when comparing to Thetford forest which offers a lot more facilities. The toilets were honestly disgusting, there was only one female toilet so the queue was massive, and it was just not clean or maintained at all. Really would put me off going back, please invest in a new toilet block!
We went there to see one of the most famous UFO landing sites in the United Kingdom, and we end up being very disappointed. However, the beauty of Rendlesham Forrest compensated us exponentially after we took almost two hour long walk deep into its richness. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Visiting the area had to go and do the UFO trail, it's an easy trail to follow, very child friendly. We all had a great walk. Listening to birds and identifying them on an app. The UFO was interesting just so sad that it's been graffitied. The forest is beautiful
