About

The Look Out Discovery Centre at Bracknell, Berkshire is a hands-on science centre with over 80 interactive exhibits — air, water, light, sound, force, the body — set inside Swinley Forest with a 22-metre tower offering panoramic forest views. Free Forestry England-managed walking and cycling trails radiate from the centre across 1,000 hectares of pine. A reliably under-rated wet-weather day for Berkshire/Surrey families with primary-age children.
