Exploring Hanningfield Reservoir, Essex / Nature Walk and Trail
Welcome to Hanningfield Reservoir, Essex / Nature Walk and Trail This is the perfect nature reserve to explore, on your own, with a loved one or with all of your family. The nature reserve offers some beautiful walks through the woodland, taking in bird hides, ponds and views across the reservoir. The site is run in partnership with Essex & Suffolk Water and you can walk through the reserve to the Essex & Suffolk Water Fishing Lodge and the Cafe on the Water. The reservoir itself is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to the important numbers of wildfowl that use the reservoir in the autumn and winter, including Gadwall, Tufted Duck and Pochard. The spectacle of thousands of Swifts, Swallows and Martins feeding over the water during peak fly hatches is one of the delights for the summer visitor. 30 acres of the woodland are ancient in origin and spring flowers include carpets of Bluebells, Stitchwort and Woodland Anemone. There are some really good nature trails on the reserve for all to enjoy. #hanningfieldreservoir #naturewalk #naturetrail #essexwildlifetrust #naturereserve
