Maps and Tours
Clipstone Park Trail
Why not take the Clipstone Park Trail, and walk through history?
The Clipstone Park Trail is linear and runs from the ruins of King John’s Palace, once the Royal Heart of Sherwood Forest, to the majestic Parliament Oak, formerly boundary tree for Clipstone Park. The trail is 5.7km or 3.5 miles in length, and you’ll end up at King John’s Palace. You could take a detour and visit Spa Ponds too, which adds 1.3km (0.8 miles) to your walk.
The trail is suitable for walkers, cyclists or horse riders. Parking is available near the ‘Dog and Duck’ public house (heading east out of Kings Clipstone on the B6030) and 2 spaces at the Parliament Oak.
