Meander along the marsh road through the diverse natural habitat at Arnside & Silverdale, one of the country’s smallest AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and visit the largest reed bed in Northwest England at Leighton Moss RSPB Nature Reserve – home to otters, red deer and breeding birds such as bitterns, bearded tits and marsh harriers.

Great views of the Bay can be had at Warton Crag before picking up the canal towpath at Carnforth, with much of this section being traffic-free.
