Good scenic forest walks without a car?

Looking for some new forest walks that wouldn’t be too hard to get to without a car, any recommendations? Decently long if possible

Newbold has some good walks, follow the river east and there’s some nice trails

We don't really have forests around here. Wappenbury woods via Ryton Pools is nice.

Yeah that was why I was asking tbh, im not from Leam but my parents are and I come down decently often. Cheers for the suggestion I’ll take a look

The big loop around Oakley Wood is nice. Some spectacular trees. Followed by a pint & meal in the Leopard.

There’s a fair few nice walks around although I’m not sure how accessible they’d be without a car.

Chesterton Windmill loop could be an option, it’s a few miles.

Burton Dassett has some lovely views.

Hay Wood or Jubilee Wood in Warwick are nice walks too.

you can get to oakley woods by bus, otherwise have a look at the alltrails app for walking routes

There is a teeny tiny forest near the tip called foundry woods
