Also a remnant of the Windsor Forest, this massive tract of woodland marks Bracknell’s southern boundary, 3 miles from the centre. The Swinley Forest is now mostly a modern Scots pine plantation and is still managed in the hands of the Crown Estate. The woodland encompasses gently rolling hills, with a few man-made earthwork mounds that go back to training grounds built just before the Napoleonic Wars. A scene from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part I was filmed in Swinley Forest, requiring 160 trees to be cut down. The forest has a few visitor amenities, including the Look Out Discovery Centre, and is also considered one of the best places in the Southeast to go mountain biking.
