Welcome to the enchanted world of Puzzlewood, a unique and ancient woodland in the heart of the Forest of Dean. Puzzlewood is a rare temperate rainforest and a popular filming location, which has featured in Star Wars, Doctor Who and many more.
Experience Puzzlewood's twisted trees and moss covered rocks, creating an otherworldly woodland that is quite unlike any other. The mile and a half of paths take you up and down steps, through mossy gorges and over wooden bridges to scenic lookouts.
Puzzlewood is fun for all ages. Children can enjoy our educational Roman coin treasure hunt and our information boards tell you more about Puzzlewood's history, geology and film/TV connections.
Please note: Puzzlewood has over 200 narrow, uneven steps that can be slippery in wet weather. Sturdy footwear with sufficient grip is essential. No dogs allowed on site. No pushchairs permitted.
