Our visitors' centre and well-stocked shop are the ideal place to start your visit. Join a trail through the woodland and birds are soon all around you. You should be able to see and hear pied flycatchers and redstarts, while dippers nest by the lake and rocky streams, and above you, ravens, buzzards and perhaps a peregrine soar in the skies.
