Summary

Join our Naturetrek tour leader to explore this beautiful part of NW England. The Arnside AONB has a range of habitats including limestone pavement, woodland and estuary. It is a rich area for butterflies, birds and orchids (late summer will be predominately birds). We will explore Arnside Knott and Gait Barrows National Nature Reserve (managed by Natural England) and finish by looking out onto Morecambe Bay in the hope of seeing an Osprey and some waders. The two main sites have circular walks and we expect to cover approximately 8 miles.
