Queenswood Country Park & Arboretum

Queenswood Country Park & Arboretum is Herefordshire Wildlife Trust's most visited nature reserve and is the green heart of Herefordshire.

A fantastic site for visitors of all ages to explore the great outdoors, Queenswood is also home to a nationally important arboretum and acres of semi-natural ancient woodland which are designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest.

Facilities at Queenswood include pay-before-you-leave parking and toilets, our Woodland Café, visitor centre and gift shop, waymarked trails, a viewpoint, playground and our much-loved Gruffalo sculpture trail.
