Written by Nigel Fisher and Dr Keith Kirby, the guidebook's 80 pages are packed with photographs and information about Wytham Woods, and can be used as a walker's companion. If you've ever wondered what certain areas of Wytham are as you explore them, or about the history of the site, what research is carried out here, or what different equipment and markings are, the guidebook will have answers to many of your questions!

Any profit from the sale of the book goes directly into the Wytham Woods Appeal Fund, which supports conservation and engagement projects at Wytham Woods.
