Description
The 12 miles of waymarked footpaths within the Thornham Estate wind through beautiful countryside. Two walks leave cafe and parking area. The short walk (indicated on the map below) is all tarmac and easily accessible. It has a bird hide where lots of Лазоревка, Большая синица and Обыкновенный поползень can be seen. The long walk is across fields and very quiet. Keep your eyes open for Снегирь, Сойка, Белобровик, Канюк and Малая белая цапля.
