Go Wild in Belhus
Wednesday 5 June 2024
Start & End: Meeting Point: Belhus Park Leisure Centre, Park Lane, Aveley, RM15 4PX
We explored this fantastic Thurrock site packed full of flora, fauna and wildlife on two walks – a short or long walk through Belhus Estate. The shorter walk took walkers around the Estate where we saw the Ice House, Long Pond, plantations of oak and ash and the stink pipe. On the longer walk, we continued around the lakes, Whitepost Wood and Belhus Park Visitor Centre. Home to a wide array of wildlife, walkers were on the lookout for sandmartins, woodpeckers, waterfowl, swans, ducks, geese and many ancient trees.
