Overview

We take the Forest path from Piddington into Salcey( used for hunting in medieval times) to visit the amazing ancient oaks, two of which are still standing. The walk is mainly flat on good paths apart from a couple of boggy stretches and there are no stiles. We will stop at the Forest cafe for a break.  This walk has been designed by Northamptonshirewalks
