The walk will last around an hour, with stops along the way where you will have the opportunity to try out some different activities with your dog.
We want to welcome all dogs on this walk, some of whom may not be fans of other dogs or people in their personal space. For this reason, we request that all dogs must remain on a short lead or long line at all times, and must not approach any other dogs without consent from the other dog’s owner first.
Please do not bring extendable leads.
If you’ve not heard about about dogs who wear yellow before, you can learn more here: https://ashdownforest.org/yellow-dogs/
While we will do all we can to make you and your dog feel comfortable during this walk, please bear in mind that Ashdown Forest is open to the public and we may come across off-lead dogs, wildlife and horses. If you have any concerns about whether this walk will be suitable for you and your dog, please feel free to get in touch at conservators@ashdownforest.org or 01342 823 583.
We will be doing some scent work and other tasks during the walk, so please bring along some high value treats or toys for your dog.
One last thing! Please pick up after your dog! Dog waste can cause serious infections to people and other animals, it changes the chemistry of the Forest soils and spoils the surroundings for everyone else. Please carry bags and take your rubbish away with you.
