Holt Heath is a nature reserve and SSSI. It includes areas of heathland, bog and ancient woodland. It's one of only a few places in England where all six species of reptile can be found. Look out for rare heathland birds like the Eurasian Hobby, nightjar, Dartford warbler and woodlark.

Small parking lay-by free on the main road is a great starting point. Don't plan, just wander. There are lots of trails criss cross.
