Set among the woodlands of the New Forest, The Old Reptiliary is a peaceful place to enjoy a family-friendly New Forest walk, picnic and time beneath the trees.

Previously known as the New Forest Reptile Centre, The Old Reptiliary no longer has reptiles or other creatures available to view due to animal welfare issues and predation, and the information cabin is now closed. The site remains a lovely place to visit, with woodland walking trails, a picnic area and facilities for visitors exploring this part of the New Forest.

The Old Reptiliary car park is open during school and bank holidays, with toilet facilities and picnic tables available close by.

Start and finish at The Old Reptiliary car park near Lyndhurst on this circular walk and children’s sensory trail.
