BOOKING ESSENTIAL
CPRE Countryside Day is an annual celebration of everything that is good about the countryside
For Countryside Day 2025, we are teaming up with the Hawk and Owl Trust to offer a guided walk around Shapwick Moor Nature Reserve.
Enjoy a guided walk with the Hawk and Owl Trust
This is a great opportunity to learn how degraded agricultural land has been changed in recent years into a haven for wildlife and a place for people to enjoy. Former arable fields are gradually being restored to herb-rich grassland and fen, through careful management of water levels, grazing and cutting for hay. There are two viewing hides, both with step-free access. There are several owl boxes on the reserve, as part of the Trust’s “adopt a nest box” scheme. Recently, signs of beaver activity have been spotted!
Come and explore the newest nature reserve on the Avalon Marshes with the experts.
Volunteers will be on hand to explain the history of the site and how the different habitats are managed.
We expect the event to take around 2 hours.
Huge thanks to the Hawk and Owl Trust for sharing the afternoon with us.
