Nature trails
Short, gentle nature and boardwalk trails, often with information boards, good for families and slow walking.
What to know
Nature trails are about stopping as much as moving — boardwalks over bogs, birdwatching hides, marked points of interest. Distances are short, the pace is slow, and they are ideal for children and anyone easing back into activity.
Individual nature trails are being added from open trail data. The planning table below applies to any route.
