Walk Description:

A walk through lowland heath.

The heath is made up of lowland, wetland, grassland and heather with pines and birch woodlands. 

A green flag awarded park.

Most of the trails are wide gravel tracks but there are areas which have tree roots.

We will walk for around 5.5 miles. This can take up to 2.5 hours.

There is one road to cross on the way to the south park. There are some hilly areas on this side. Lovely

views.

We can stop at the toilets on our route back before returning across the heath to the cars.

 

 

Location Notes:

Parking in road near residential park home site. Entry to Avon Heath over pedestrian bridge. Toilets in the park. Cows on site. (CP)
