How to enter
Entries will be taken on the day. Spaces are limited so we recommend arriving early to register. Optional charity donation of £1 per entry collected in cash on the day.
Accessibility and wellbeing
Haldon Forest Bark will take place outdoors on a mixture of forest track and grass so we recommend sturdy footwear and dressing for the weather.
The terrain is largely level but the grass may be muddy in wet weather. There are several benches available around the event area.
There are no toilets in the event area. Visitor toilets are located in the visitor hub opposite the cafe, about 400m from the event area.
There is free drinking water for dogs and humans near the visitor toilets.
Check people and dogs for ticks when you leave the forest.
The event area is likely to be busy. The Discovery Trail will have an optional diversion to avoid the event area.
