Description

Clare Glen Riverside walk is an easy forest and river walk. Many of the trees in the wood are multistemmed and the wood may have been managed by coppicing in the past. Hazel is abundant, with oak, ash and wych elm over a stunning ground layer of wood anemone, wild garlic and bluebells, and several different species of orchid (when in season). You can see different kinds of forest birds. Spotted on a rock in middle of river vodnár potočný beside wooden bridge crossing.
