Train to Thetford, then 17 min taxi, or 48 min bus

Thetford Forest straddles Suffolk and Norfolk, though the central hub of the High Lodge is in the
former. Here, you and the family can channel Robin Hood on the archery range; take a crash
course in wilderness survival; brave the treetop rope bridges and zip wires of Go Ape; or simply

get back to nature, by exploring the 45,000 acres of pines, heathland and broadleaves. In the
summer, Thetford Forest also hosts concerts on a huge woodland-ensconced stage. While you're

in the area, check out the Dad's Army Museum (it's free, although only open Saturdays). Thetford
