Free Wildlife Walk at Marsh Farm Country Park with Bird Aware
Join us for a free wildlife walk through Marsh Farm Country Park.
Join the team of Bird Aware coastal rangers who will guide you from the free car park by South Woodham Ferrers Yacht Club along the seawall to Hawbush Creek Viewpoint and back.
Please note that this walk will not be suitable for people that cannot walk long distances. There are no public toilets or any other facilities on this site.
Meet in the car park at 10:00am and the walk will take approximately two hours. Please bring suitable footwear, as the paths can get muddy and slippery after wet weather.
Dogs are welcome but MUST be kept on leads for the entire duration of the walk.
