The ranger team at Northam Burrows are running a series of free guided walks this Autumn, offering the chance to get some fresh air in the stunning local landscape and discover its seasonal wildlife.
The ‘Nature’s Tonic’ walks, held on Thursdays, feature gentle hour-long excursions on easy terrain. These walks are ideal for those who may not be overly active but want to enjoy some fresh air and friendly company. On the other hand, ‘Good Start to the Week’, held on Mondays, offers a longer hike on more challenging terrain. We regret that dogs are not permitted to join these guided walks.
Dates for the walks include:
Monday 20th October 2pm – 4pm: Meet at Northam Burrows Visitor Centre for a walk around the coast path, with local historian Dave Edgcombe.
Thursday 6th November 3pm – 4pm: Meet at Westward Ho! Slipway for a sandy stroll along the beach.
Monday 17th November 2pm – 4pm: Meet at Northam Burrows Visitor Centre for a walk to the Skern saltmarsh, looking at birds and other wildlife.
All events are free to attend and there is no booking required. However, toll charges may apply for vehicles wanting to park on Northam Burrows. For further information, please visit www.torridge.gov.uk/northamburrows
