Dearne Valley - Old Moor

We have two accessible toilets, one has changing facilities (table and hoist). They are located just next to our visitor centre, accessed via the courtyard.

They are located in both gender toilets and our accessible toilets on the ground floor, just next to our visitor centre, accessed via the courtyard.

All the paths are flat and have hard surfaces, although there are some inclines with refuge points. The trail to the Bittern Hide does have a steep gradient with refuge points and hand rail. Seating and refuge points are available at intervals of approximately every 100 m with and without backs.

Sorry, dogs are not permitted at Old Moor, except assistance dogs, due to the sensitive wildlife and habitats here. We know that the countryside is a dog walking paradise. It’s important to remember the special surroundings here are wonderful havens for rare wildlife. Even if dogs are very well behaved, wildlife can easily become startled by a dog they perceive as a predator. Disturbing wildlife does more than simply causing it to move away; it uses up their energy, decreasing their chance of survival regardless of season. Thank you for protecting the special wildlife by not exercising your dog here. Other exciting dog walking routes are available to enjoy in the local area; try our satellite sites at Adwick Washlands, Gypsy Marsh or Eddethorpe where dogs are welcome on a lead or under close control.

Assistance dogs are welcome in all parts of the reserve.

BBQs are a fire risk, endangering other people and the precious wildlife and habitats here. They are not permitted on the reserve at any time.
