This is my favourite of all of Corbys urban woodlands. There's something interesting around every corner; hidden ponds, spring flowers, felled trees to climb on, mighty oaks to sit under and read. As the name suggests, this is more of a nature reserve than a public park and it has a wonderful unmanaged, left to grow wild, feel. There are a handful of cleared, gravel pathways that dissect the reserve in a H shape, so there's no obvious circular route unless you're willing to explore the many foot-worn trails wriggling off under the canopy, but the wood does open out to a field and a play park at it's north-eastern corner if you need somewhere to direct your walk towards. Throughout the day, the main paths in the wood are popular with dog walkers and keep-fitters who'll often stop for chat on their way through. Teenagers sometimes use the logs and clearings found off the trails as a social space too, keeping themselves to themselves as teenagers often do. Expect dappled morning and evening sun, quiet nature sounds, lush green summer canopies, crisp winter silhouettes, and of course puddles and squidgy mud in the wetter weeks.

If you like the nature go this Park, but if you want visit prepare to ready to go the treking shoes or boots than the path is not easy, muddy and wetty. Some people go walk around this place with dog. Quiet place so if you want walk the realax mode just visit. In here have 2 lakes or pods, but I not found.
