If it’s dry it good, if it’s been raining it’s an awful mud bath and one to avoid!

More than 200 bird species have been recorded visiting Hatfield and Thorne Moor. Winter visitors include whooper swans, pink-footed geese, hen harrier, and short-eared owls. From March-July a very special summer visitor is the diminutive woodlark and also oystercatcher, lapwing, ringed plover and great crested grebe can be spotted around the lakes. Badger Corner Lake is a special place to watch your favourite birds.

The Humberhead Peatlands are a remnant of a large wetland that occupied the floodplain of the Humberhead Levels thousands of years ago. They have been worked for peat throughout recorded history. The impact of this working has been to leave the remaining area with too varied a water table to allow peat formation. It is a fascinating area full of wildlife and of course it is quite boggy!

Bad conditions yesterday, passable just but very muddy

"Off-Road" dusty (in summer) gravel road, accessible by car and wide enough to park on. Cuts across the middle of the Nature Reserve giving access to the heart of it.

Gets overgrown with brambles and nettles in places but decent bike gets you through

Bridleway that runs almost parallel to Bawtry Road. It's a bit lumpy and rutted at the southern end but gets better, and wider, at the nothern end where it joins up with a number of other farm tracks heading east and west. A good alternative to get off the busy Bawtry Road, providing you've got the right kind of bike (mtb, gravel or a tourer with a wide tyre). The southern end can be a bit tricky in Winter, especially when it's muddy.

I cycled all the way here from sheffield to take in some of the delightful forrest trails, but i had a slow puncture that wouldnt seal on my tubless set up so i stuck to the road. As i was flying through i could see there was an extensive trail network which is crying out to be explored.
