Wisley Common

Overview

Wisley Common is a massive 800-acre nature preserve that's perfect for families wanting to get outdoors. With its lovely woodlands and heathlands, there's a sense of freedom as you explore the trails and take in the sights and sounds of nature. You're likely to spot a variety of wildlife, which is always exciting for the kids. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it a great escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

It's also a favourite for dog walkers, even if you don't own a dog yourself. The vast open spaces are just brilliant for letting little ones roam and discover. Bring along a picnic and find a spot at one of the many picnic tables scattered throughout the area. Just be prepared for variable food options if you plan to grab a bite on-site.
