Why not join our wildlife experts for a  wildlife discovery and information walk over the high moorland plateau above the Dove Stone reservoir this weekend ?

The walk will be led by members of our information team to check out the wildlife that inhabits this exposed and often inhospitable environment and look at the moorland improvement work being carried out to restore the blanket bog,  improve your water supply and create new habitat for our iconic moorland species.

Walking up to one of the highest points on the reserve gives wonderful views of the surrounding area ( weather conditions permitting ! ).   

This six mile route will take between three to four hours and is suitable for those visitors capable of moderately strenuous walking who are able to cope with potentially changeable weather conditions.  Binoculars are highly recommended to fully enjoy the bird life.

Please come equipped with suitable walking boots, waterproofs and food and drink for lunch at Ashway Gap picnic area,  where there'll also be the opportunity to watch Dove Stone's Peregrines. 

Walk leaves at 10 am from the RSPB visitor welcome point, at the top of the main car park.

See you there !
