Lynford Stag Walk

2.4 miles (3.8 km)

Ordnance Survey Map Open Streetmap This circular walk explores the Lynford Stag Walk in Thetford Forest.
The trail starts from the Lynford Stag car park where there's a nice picnic area and the metal imitation "target stag", found by the workers when the area was being planted.
From the car park you can pick up a pleasant circular trail taking you through the peaceful woodland. The area is popular with dog walkers.
About a mile to the north you could extend your walk at the Lynford Arboretum where there's another circular trail and some fine specimen trees.
