About this walk
Almost 200 acres of landscaped Suffolk countryside just south of Bury St Edmunds, with mixed woodland, open grassland and the waymarked Oakes Folly tree trail. Dogs must be kept under control throughout and mess cleared up, but there is no blanket lead requirement across the open parkland, only around the fenced play area and sports pitches during the playing season, which are dog exclusion zones.
