About the event

Led by our knowledgeable reserves team, this guided walk will take you through dunes, grazing marsh and grassland as we search for the fascinating flowers, plants and butterflies that thrive here. Along the way, you’ll discover how these special habitats are managed and learn how seasonal changes shape the wildlife you see.

A highlight of the walk will be spotting orchids in season, which can be found on the reserve at this time of year. We’ll also keep an eye out for butterflies and other pollinators enjoying the summer blooms.
