Description
The shortest walk at Ae, through mature open Norway Spruce in the valley bottom. The shelter of this valley location will allow us to grow some of these trees to old age. This walk also passes the British Forest Heritage Plough Collection. Keep an eye out along the river for birds such as herons and dippers. This walk is waymarked from the start and there is an orientation map board at the beginning of the walk.
