First off I know this has been covered a million time but I’ve always wanted to visit! Thankfully we picked a really clear day to go yesterday and I couldn’t be happier with how the day went.
Also massive thank you to Bobdobina for the help as well!
There is a direct path that takes you to the mock airfield with all the planes it’s about a 40 minute walk from parking up where you see the helicopter and then about another further 20 minutes to see all the planes! There is so much in close proximity tanks and all sorts.
We decided on the way back to take a “shortcut” I would not do this again the direction we took we ended up falling into numerous bogs and I nearly ended up with a tree stump through my ankle so be careful here. Also had to scale 2 5ft fences due to not taking correct directions back.
On the path there you will notice an active airfield with radar tower with what looked like rockets and and a new plane. We were expecting to be stopped as they must of knew we were there.
There was brand new portaloos right on the mock airfield so it’s definitely in use still.
Anyway onto the actual planes, there is well over a dozen there with helicopter and tank nearby. Don’t ask me what they were I wouldn’t have a clue they are well documented on here, thoroughly recommend just don’t steer off path!
If you stick to the path it is not bad at all I think we managed 7 miles altogether to and from.
