For a full wildlife safari, take a trip to the Chew Valley for some stunning landscapes and wonderful walks. Start off at Chew Valley lake where you can follow the nature trails around the water's edge, full leaflets are available to download for both the Grebe trail and the Bittern trail. Walk through the wildflower meadows and shady woodlands to the bird hide and get a spectacular view across the water to Denny island where you can use our spotter sheet to look for summer waders. Then refuel in the cafe at the car park before heading off to explore the fantastic nature reserve at Folly farm.
Well recommended is a circular walk through the woodlands up to Round Hill for spectacular views over the Chew Valley and back through the wildflower meadows. Discover the historic landscape of the ferme ornée with it's restored cascades and, later on, find the badger watching spot on the Access for All trail and wait for the badgers to come out foraging at dusk. A truly magical end to the day.
