Forestry England disc golf
Forestry England courses are a great way to try disc golf in the forest. They welcome first-time players, families and regular disc golfers, with courses available at forests across England.
If you enjoy your round and want to play again, the English Disc Golf Association (EDGA) can help you find more courses, local clubs, beginner guidance and events across England.
Playing at a Forestry England course
Forestry England disc golf courses operate seven days a week throughout the year. There is no need to book, and playing is free if you bring your own discs. Parking charges may apply.
Disc hire is available at every Forestry England disc golf site, making it easy to bring a friend or introduce someone to the sport. Forestry England members may also be eligible for discounted disc hire; check the relevant forest information for availability and terms.
Some courses have both shorter red tees and longer blue tees. The shorter layout can be helpful for beginners, younger players and anyone looking for a more accessible first round. Available layouts vary by site, so check the course information and signs when you arrive.
