Woodland Walks

The stunning, historical woodland that surrounds Hatfield House is yours to explore with three beautiful walks of varying lengths that evolve through the seasons. We hope you enjoy your experience.

Woodland Walks

There are three signposted walks you could take through the Hatfield Park woodlands to appreciate their natural beauty from different aspects. 

WALKS

Yellow Walk
(1.4 miles / 2.3 kilometres / 40 minutes)

Blue Walk
(2.1 miles / 3.4 kilometres / 60 minutes)

Red Walk
(3.1 miles / 5 kilometres / 90 minutes)

START

All three walks start at the large wooden gates near the entrance to Stable Yard, where you’ll also find the restaurant, shops and lavatories. Walk down the Carriage Drive and around the horse chestnut tree at the bottom, cutting across the grass to the corner of the wood.

COUNTRY CODE

Please keep any furry friends under firm control and use the provided waste bins. We recommend walking shoes or boots and kindly ask that, for your own safety, you keep to the way-marked routes. We inspect them regularly.
