Avon Wildlife Trust looks after 35 nature reserves in
the local area - from bluebell woods to butterfly-filled meadows, from grassy
hill forts to shimmering waterland. By managing land with wildlife in mind,
we’ve encouraged small blue butterflies to breed at Bathampton Oxbow and
raised water levels for bird populations on the North Somerset Levels.
Green spaces are good for you
Climb
the steep slopes of Goblin Combe, stride out across the
Clapton Circuit, and raise your spirits with the skylarks
on Puxton Moor. Work out with the Wildlife Action Group
with a spot of scrub-bashing or step-building.
It’s
a fact, the great green outdoors counteracts the stresses
and strains of modern life - it’s healthy and it’s
free! Download
a detailed walk for each site from the selection below

Guide (PDF format).
