Runfold Wood is a 12-hectare (30-acre) nature reserve east of Farnham in Surrey. It is managed by the Surrey Wildlife Trust.[1]

This former beech plantation was badly damaged by the major storms of 1987 and 1990. It is now regenerating naturally as a mixed woodland. It has rare invertebrates, lichens and fungi together with birds such as blackcaps and nuthatches.[1]

There is access from Crooksbury Road or Compton Way in Runfold.[1]
