Venture out onto the nature reserve in areas you wouldn’t normally be able to access.
Join a friendly, expert warden and experience some of the season’s best highlights.
You never know what you could find during one of the walks. You could see Whorled Caraway in full bloom, a carpet of orchids, a hare sat preening, lapwing chicks feeding in a new scrape, skylarking singing overhead, the scent of freshwater mint and pineapple weed, or even a marsh harrier soaring across the landscape.
