Really cool additional reserve attached to golden acre park. Two bird hides (the second was better in my experience). Saw loads on my trip there including a fawn and loads of cool birds. All the house martins flying around at sunset is really cool.

Great place for photography and sightseeing. The city views are spectacular, especially after dark when the lights come on. A wonderful spot to relax and take beautiful pictures.

Great spot for leaving the hubbub of the park and enjoying a spot of solitude. There are two bird hides, both adequately positioned. The route is quite obvious and well laid out, it can be muddy so boots or wellies in periods of wet weather are advised. The biggest attraction I found there - as there weren’t many birds around on the day I visited - were the really characterful, mossy trees. Just a wonder to walk between.

A really nice pocket sized Nature Reserve. One trail around the big lake through the woods means you are unlikely to get lost. Yorkshire Wildlife Trust often has staff on site to help advise and inform. No entry charge. 2 hides to sit in. One is wheelchair friendly. There is also a new screen to stand behind and observe nature. Some boggy areas have wooden walkways around to the lake hide. Beyond that you will need boots if we have had rain or snow as the ground is muddy and there are lots of roots to get passed. Things to see Many duck breeds, little Egrets, Herons, Grebes, Kingfishers, Red Kites often overhead. There are also Roe Deer.

I was alerted to this place on social networking, and having visited some years ago I was interested to see it now. And what a great job they have done to the site. I had a great walk around the trail with my daughter who also found it interesting. The bird hydes, sculptures, nature and wildlife information was a great educational, calming and enjoyable experience. We were wondering if it could be classified as wheelchair friendly, but we thought not as the entire route would nit be manageable. Maybe in time to come. A very nice walk. Many thanks.
