The second route option from Sandridge takes you in the opposite direction, on a loop of walking around the impressive Heartwood Forest that is especially beautiful in April when the Bluebells are blooming.

You can explore the forest further than our recommended route if you wish (we have separate dedicated Heartwood Forest walks on the app), but this route is a lovely simple option if walking in from Sandridge.
