Bit muddy when 'out of the season', so better to wear appropriate footwear, or come in summer :) Otherwise cozy little park. Not great, not terrible.

Very interesting bog to explore! Wear appropriate footwear because it WILL get muddy.

Lovely park, there is a nice big field, lots of friendly people and dogs, and the forest is very nice to walk around as well. There is a little stream where my dog loves to play in and there are so little hidden side passages throughout which are fun to discover!
Moseley Bog, the forest with a toddler-tested seal of approval!

If you're looking for a quick escape from urban chaos, this little haven offers an hour of blissful respite. But before you set off, remember, finding a parking spot is like a game of forest bingo – be prepared to park off the beaten path and embark on your adventure.

Once inside, it's like entering another world. This charming woodland offers a mix of leafy sanctuaries and pint-sized green meadows, perfect for your little explorer to frolic in.

The star attractions? Meandering streams that mirror your toddler's zigzagging path, and a mystic swamp that may or may not be home to enchanted creatures.

Accessibility is key for parents, and Moseley Bog doesn't disappoint. The well-maintained footpaths are as smooth as a toddler's bedtime story, making it a breeze for buggies to navigate.

As you stroll, nature's orchestra serenades you with a symphony of bird songs, a melodious background for your forest adventure.

And then there's the 'mushy smell.' That earthy, comforting aroma is the forest's way of giving you a warm, leafy hug.

In a nutshell, Moseley Bog is a tiny but enchanting escape where your toddler can explore, splash in puddles, and you can soak in the tranquility of nature. Just hold your little one's hand, follow the footprints, and let the forest work its magic.

Great place for a wonder round, especially on a rainy day. Pathways are clear and well marked on the maps. Small car park but there is another larger one nearby. Bring your wellies for a good wonder round!

First time visiting this little gem of a place. It was larger than I expected, and wonderful to wander all the different trails.

The bluebells are out in abundance at this time of year, and the lush green woodland and it's creatures are truly worth your time and appreciation 💚

Took toddler with pram here as was told it was accessable. it was as long as you stick to the slated or patched bits. Lots of off road to explore if you have older kids or bringing your dogs. Really peaceful setting great for a mental health walk!!! And to feel relaxed. No benches or facilities however so I took a thermos and some biscuits and drink for the little one. He loved the nature. Tried to include some photos so you can see the paths
