Free nature parking at Captains Wood trailhead
Captains Wood Car Park is a council-operated surface lot serving the adjacent woodland trails and local golf course. It provides 60 marked bays including four disabled spaces located near the trailhead entrance. Operating hours are sunriseĀsunset daily; no charges apply. The gravel-and-asphalt surface is lightly graded for drainage and inspected quarterly; minor repairs within 48 hours. No lighting is provided to maintain woodland ambience; one CCTV camera monitors entry and pedestrian paths. Pedestrian pathways lead directly to Captains Wood trails (1 minute walk) and to Woodbridge Golf Club (3 minutes). No EV charging stations exist; the nearest public charger is at Woodbridge Station Car Park, a 10 minute drive away. Biweekly litter clearance and seasonal footpath maintenance keep the site accessible.
