About the event

Looking for school holiday activities?
Join Dorset Wildlife Trust staff for a guided walk around the stunning Kingcombe Meadows National Nature Reserve.

Explore Kingcombe Meadows National Nature Reserve which is teeming with wildlife. The nature reserve is managed as a working farm, grazed by cows, sheep and Exmoor ponies, without the use of modern agricultural practices. The result is a patchwork of fields of unimproved flower-rich grassland, broken up by thick hedges, streams, ponds, ancient green lanes and wooded areas spreading up the valley either side of the River Hooke. This area supports a wide range of wildlife .
