About Harbeech Wood
Walking boots are essential for tackling this proper Welsh woodland just outside Welshpool. Harbeech Wood sprawls across steep hillsides with paths that can get seriously muddy after rain, but the effort pays off with lovely views across the Severn Valley. The mixed deciduous forest comes alive in autumn when the beech trees turn golden - though you'll share the trails with plenty of mountain bikers.
Families with young children might find the terrain a bit challenging, as many of the footpaths are uneven and fairly steep in places. Dog walkers and keen hikers will get the most from this spot. The wood connects to longer walking routes if you fancy extending your ramble, and there's enough here to keep you busy for a couple of hours.
It's free to explore and always open, which makes it a handy option when staying at nearby holiday parks like Bank Farm Caravan Park or Seven Oaks Holiday Home Park. Spring brings bluebells to the forest floor, while winter walks offer that crisp, atmospheric feel that Welsh woodlands do so well. Pack waterproofs regardless of the forecast - the Welsh weather has a habit of changing quickly, and tree cover only helps so much.
