MALTON PICNIC RESERVE
Although relatively small in size, Malton has a wide variety of habitats, including oak woodland, mature hedgerows, ponds, meadows and scrub. The reserve's ponds attract an array of wildlife from the unusual bulrush wainscot moth that lives in the stems of reed mace to great crested newts and dragonflies. The wooded riverside path follows the River Browney in this pretty spot just east of Lanchester in County Durham, close to Malton Nature Reserve. There's an easy circular walking route through a wildflower meadow and an area of wet woodland which is listed as a rare habitat, whilst the riverbank itself is an ideal place to spot kingfishers, dipper, tree creeper and other wildlife. There is a designated picnic area here and plenty of spaces along the river path to stop and enjoy the beauty of your surroundings.

EARLY VIEWING IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
