Terrain:

Terrain: A unique and wonderfully peaceful walk through an extensive wetland landscape. Paths are predominantly flat (total ascent 14m / 46ft) and consist of a mix of purpose-built boardwalks, compacted earth/gravel tracks, and some natural grassy paths. As a wetland, expect paths to be very muddy, wet, and prone to puddles in places, especially off the boardwalks or after rain. Sturdy, comfortable, and waterproof walking boots are essential for both you and your dog.

Accessibility: The main paths and boardwalks within Westhay Nature Reserve offer good accessibility and are generally flat and wide. However, some routes, particularly those venturing off the primary boardwalks, can be very muddy and uneven, which may challenge full accessibility.
