Celebrate International Dog Day with us this August by bringing along your beloved pooch for a guided dog walk at Langley Vale Wood.

Our guides will lead you on a dog-friendly tour of the site to discover how we are transitioning this former farmland into a haven for wildlife by restoring and creating new woodland habitats. We'll also learn about how dog walkers can help.

This is a fantastic opportunity for you and your dog(s) to explore Langley Vale Wood while socialising with other dog owners and their pets.

This is a free event but booking in advance via Eventbrite is essential.

Don't forget

Please dress appropriately for the weather and bring sturdy footwear. You may also want to bring sun protection for yourself, and water for both you and your dog.

There are no toilet facilities on site. The nearest public toilets are in Ashtead on Woodfield Lane (KT21 1AT). Remember to bring an adequate supply of poo bags (for your dog).

Please make the Woodland Trust team aware of any medical issues before the start of the walk.

Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
