Harmergreen Wood is a 44-acre site that features ancient woodland in addition to cleared glades for camping. 

The main strength of this site is that it is ‘back to basics’ at its best. You can use the woodland for camping, survival, backwoods skills, bivouacking and also for basic woodcraft.  

There are no activities provided on site, as the woodland forms the basis for creating your own adventures. The back-to-basics nature of the site provides great opportunities for cooking over a wood fire, sitting round a campfire in the evening – regardless of the weather! – or sleeping under the stars. Ultimately, these things give Harmergreen its uniqueness and attraction.

Harmergreen wood is located within walking distance of Welwyn North train station and is about one mile from the A1, which make trips to surrounding areas and London quick and easy. There is a compound with a hut, which sleeps 12 in two bunk rooms. The site also has toilet and water facilities but no shower or electricity (apart from a generator). The site is ideal for Duke of Edinburgh award training as well as Scout activities.
