A forest walk in ancient woodland with huge trees and plants, sometimes you'll feel like you're walking through a tropical rainforest at Borthwood Copse.  It is one of the smaller forests on the Island, so this makes it ideal for doing shorter walks and the less dense nature means there are lots of opportunities to climb and bounce on fallen branches and explore.  Also great for spotting red squirrels.  

Facilities

- Quite a small, free carpark just before Queens Bower on Alverstone Road
