The majority of natural woodland in Huntingdonshire is owned and managed by statutory agencies such as English Nature or charities such as the Woodland Trust or the Wildlife Trust.
Woodlands of note include:

• Monkswood near Abbots Ripton owned by English Nature
• Archers Wood and Aversley Wood owned by the Woodland Trust
• Brampton Wood, Ladys Wood and Raveley Wood owned by Cambridgeshire Wildlife Trust
  

The District Council’s Countryside Services manage woodland contained within Hinchingbrooke Country Park and Paxton Pits Nature Reserve. The Thicket, between St Ives and Houghton is a small area of ancient woodland with public access; whilst Holt Island, at the western end of St Ives is now wooded, being a disused Osier bed.

There are two areas of woodland bordering Hill Rise Park: Top and Long Plantations. Both are pleasant areas of mature woodland with informal access.
