Highgate Wood
Highgate Wood is a much-loved ancient woodland, meaning it’s remained woodland for over 500 years, in North London. It is a remnant of the ancient forest of Middlesex, and covering 28 hectares. It is hugely important for wildlife, as well as offering human visitors a connection to a timeless natural landscape in the city.
