Join us for a morning exploring the rewilding landscape of Broughton Sanctuary.
Your guide will be our ecologist, River Six, who has a wealth of knowledge and hands-on experience in restoring natural ecosystems and promoting biodiversity.
You will take a walk into the landscape to hear more about how and why we are transforming our 2600 acres of high intensity sheep pasture into a mosaic of different habitats, to deliver essential ecosystem services that we all need for a healthy planet.
Along the way River will point out some of the birds, insects, trees and plants that call this landscape home and tell you about the wildlife which we expect to move in as the landscape continues to rewild.
We are sorry that these tours are not suitable for wheelchair users or people with limited mobility. We are working on providing alternative opportunities in the near future.
This event is open to adults and children aged 8+
