For Chepstow Walkers are Welcome’s Walking Festival Living Levels are partnering with the naturalist Gavin Vella for a dawn chorus circular walk around Magor and Magor Marsh.

Loops & Links Walk 7: Magor & Magor Marsh Loop

Distance: 1.5 - 2miles | Time: 1.5-2 hours | Easy Walk

Soak up the dawn chorus with Living Levels Landscape Partnership and naturalist Gavin Vella on a gentle walk from Magor Square to Magor Marsh Nature Reserve, past the ruins of Magor Mansion and returning via St Mary’s Church. Gwent Wildllife Trust's ​Magor Marsh Nature Reserve is one of the last fragments of fenland on the Gwent Levels, a landscape which has existed here for thousands of years. This is a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

This walk consists of some country lane walking, but much of the time will be in the nature reserve. Gavin Vella will be on hand to discuss the bird calls and identify what we can hear and see. Bring your binoculars along and get ready to hopefully hear or see little egrets, kingfishers, water voles and more.

Bring:  If you have binoculars bring them along, but don’t worry if you haven’t got any, we will have some that you can borrow.

Starting Point: Please meet at Magor Square Car Park.
