Play

Moors Valley is a fantastic place for children to play and explore.

Play Trail

Out in the Forest, discover the Play Trail with its unique pieces of wooden play equipment.
You can explore inside a giant 'ants nest', climb and crawl through 'towers and tunnels', slide inside giant snakes in the 'snake pit', attempt the 'crocodile crossing' and find your way through the 'pond maze'. The trail is only a mile long but with so many exciting pieces of play equipment you should allow at least an hour to complete it all. The trail is suitable for pushchairs and mobility scooters.

Tree Top Trail

Half way along the Play Trail there is the option to divert onto the Tree Top Trail. This 5 metre high wooden walk way takes you for 200metres high up in the trees and so it allows you to get a real bird's eye view of the Forest.
Please note: the Tree Top Trail is not suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs, however there is a connecting path from start to finish.

Play Areas

There are also two imaginative play areas close to the Visitor Centre.
The Adventure Play Area, designed specially for older children, includes a zip slide, huge space net, climbing boulder and a fortress of towers and crossings with a long tube slide.
Younger children will be enthralled in the Castle and Sandworks area with its gentle slides, springy animals and swings, all set inside a safe sand area so don't forget to bring your bucket and spade too!
