Meathop · 1 checked & stamped
Boots on. These are the Meathop walks worth the drive, with lead rules and livestock warnings marked.
Half a mile out and back on boardwalk, wood chip and rough path across Cumbria Wildlife Trust's oldest reserve, a raised bog on the neck of land between the Kent estuary and Meathop Fell. Dogs are asked to be on a lead, and there is a hard safety reason as well as a wildlife one: the ground away from the path is very soft, with filled peat cuttings and deep water only feet from the walkway. No permit is needed and the reserve is open all year. Access is on a temporary line while restoration work continues, with permanent walkways planned.
