Please park in the village and walk to the woods

All visitors to the woods must park in Gifford Village centre, which is just a 5-10 minute walk away.

We are doing our best to ensure that the activities of the Gifford Community Woodland do not cause frustration for local residents. Thank you for your consideration.
