Wildwood Kent

Attraction Information

Wildwood is a one-of-a-kind wildlife park and conservation charity located in Kent, boasting 40 acres of stunning woodland where visitors can get up close and personal with a wide range of British wildlife from both the past and present. With over 200 native animals, including deer, foxes, red squirrels, wolves, wild boar, lynx, badgers, beavers, and the latest addition of a family of Kormisosh bears, Wildwood is a haven for any animal-loving family, and the Cute Corner is perfect for preschool visitors to learn about recognisable animals.

Once you’ve explored the park and its inhabitants, you can head over to the Amazing Adventure Playground and let your inner monkey loose by swinging on swings and rockers or climbing up to new heights on the wild fort and treetop towers. For the daring, Kent’s tallest drop slide is a must-try! The park is split into two areas, ensuring that play is easy and safe for all ages. You can enjoy a picnic on one of the nestled-away picnic tables while soaking up the beautiful surroundings, or dine at the on-site restaurant for some delicious food.
