Mile-long Christmas trail through Kent forest

More than a million lights will make up the Field of Light, Fire Tree and Giant Lilies experiences


The countdown to Christmas has started, and Forest England’s Bedgebury in Kent is getting ready to welcome its illuminated Trail back this year from 19 November 2021 to 2 January 2022.

Greeted by the sights and sounds of Christmas, guests can wander beneath unique canopies drenched in seasonal colour.

The one-mile winter trail in the heart of the Kent countryside will include some brand-new installations.

There will be giant colour changing lilies, fields of light and burnished lantern trees filled with flickering flames. Neon strings stretched between towering trees, larger than life colourful flora and plenty of fantastic selfie moments.
See the Forest’s impressive conifer collection adorned with decorations, so wrap up warm and be transported into a winter wonderland. Walk alongside dancing fountains and linger by shimmering reflections that cast light into hidden places. From the delicate and twinkling to the grand and spectacular, continue through the towering Tunnel of Light festooned by over 100,000 pea-lights.


Independent street food vendors bring a delicious twist to tasty treats on offer. Have yourself a holly, jolly Christmas and complete your walk under the stars with *toasted marshmallows, a *spiced winter warmer or *hot chocolate shared with someone special.

Trail highlights for 2021 :

  • Field of light – this much loved and photographed feature returns for 2021

  • Giant lilies – watch the reflections of giant lily sculptures dancing playfully on Marshall’s Lake
