Vale Farm Nature Trail

Please visit our other website www.valetrail.co.uk for more information.

Whether you just want a fun family day out or whether you are a serious "twitcher" or Nature watcher or photographer, the Vale Trail and its 2 routes are a wonderful way in which to see some of Britain's native birds, mammals, flora and fauna - or just to enjoy some of Dorset's beautiful views and countryside.

A clearly marked map, together with 15 custom made wildlife and habitat information signs, guides you around the route which is between 1½ - 4 hours long (depending on your pace). These signs explain the different types of creatures and plants that live along the way ... from Badgers to Roe Deer, Otters to Buzzards, Tawny owls to a variety of butterflies!

The Vale Trail is free for our resident guests.
