Friston Forest is a large area of woodland located in East Sussex, England, covering approximately 445 hectares. The forest is dominated by oak, beech, and birch trees, with a mix of coniferous and deciduous species. The terrain is varied, with hills, valleys, and streams creating a diverse landscape. The forest floor is carpeted with bluebells, wild garlic, and other woodland flowers in the spring, making it a popular destination for nature lovers and walkers. Several trails, including the Sussex Border Path, crisscross the forest, offering scenic views and opportunities to spot wildlife such as deer, foxes, and birds.
It was easy to find. First visit for an early morning run/walk. 2hrs flew by. Will definitely return.
Good walk in a beautiful forest and sheep fields. We combined it together with the Seven Sisters cliffs to form a nice circular hike, thus avoiding going twice through the same areas.
Lovely quiet forest with parking and toilet facilities. Doesn't seem very busy so walking in among the trees was simply magical. See if you can find the little parish tucked away :)
Beautiful place to walk, especially on a sunny day. Car park and toilet block. Good variation of routes to walk.
Beautiful location. Lovely walks. Lots of parking. Picnic area and toilets.
