The reserve is also home to a variety of plant species, including wildflowers, ferns, and trees, which add to the area's natural beauty.
Lovely walk, great to see paths that make it accessible and obviously well used. Lots of greenery but still managed, will be interesting to see how it evolves and whether wildlife numbers increase. I hope so. Some parking available at the Barnard Castle entrance. Expect to meet lots of folks transiting backwards and forwards from the nearby Caravan Park.
Very muddy after rain. Lovely bluebells and wild garlic. Be cautious about choosing walking routes as some are with forts and not passable when water is high. If someone wants to see a famous viaduct do not expect too much!
Wonderful woodland/river walk, our dogs loved it and it was very quiet when we visited.
Lovely little valley ,plenty of walks,The stream running through runns in to the river Tees oposite the small carpark for the reserve,no other facilties other than that ,but ifs only a five to ten minute walk in to the town centre,well.worth a visit.
