About This Activity

Peatlands Park ended up being especially established to increase awareness of peatland habitat issues therefore it is a stop that is great key education and for a casual nature fans' visit. The peat right here was forming for aound 10,000 years and there are over 16km of paths leading site visitors through the many habitats in the park.The park is abundant with insect life, particularly butterflies, moths, dragonflies and damselflies plus woodland that is many wetland birds nest here. Badgers and hares will also be current though harder to identify, while lizards and newts are available in the bog that is available. These are cool but pretty delicate so best to observe in the place of capture!A short walk across the Bog Garden provides you with to be able to see the vast majority of the flora and fauna connected with this precious peatland habitat therefore it is ideal for either an informal saunter with all the smalls or a well known fact finding exploration with those old sufficient to select a little up of botany because they go.The Peatlands Express mini railway isn't in operation for 2015, updates expected soon to the new 12 months.
