There are numerous footpaths on the reserve, BE WARNED from 1st March - 30th September please keep to footpaths to prevent disturbance to ground nesting birds, DO NOT WALK ACROSS FIELDS THAT ARE IN CULTIVATION, this is a working farm, livestock may be present on site. Also be aware some footpaths may be extremely wet and slippery, with steep parts in places. The northern loop walk is called the Épervier d'Europe trail, the Southern loop walk is called the Courlis cendré trail (Press STAR on map).

Whilst most birds are of more commoner species, Pic épeichette were regular, unfortunately they are now rarely seen. With the reserve being so close to the River Lynher, estuary birds can also be expected, on medium high tides the local Spatule blanche roost on Beggar's Island, Press STAR on map.
