Old Sludge Beds

UK»England»Devon»Old Sludge Beds

Old Sludge Beds: A path with boardwalks runs through the site; you can make a circular walk by returning along the canal bank - allow about 30 minutes in all. The paths are flat and the terrain fairly smooth although there are steps and ramps to negotiate and all the paths are prone to waterlogging. Continuing along the canal towpath at the motorway end of the reserve provides excellent views of the upper parts of the estuary including the adjacent Exe Reed Beds DWT nature reserve.
