| Ranger Service
A dedicated and experienced Countryside Ranger Service operates on the Bowhill Estate with the responsibility of enhancing visitor enjoyment of the countryside alongside education and conservation.
|
| ConservationRangers monitor and survey a whole range of wildlife, such as red squirrels, bats, birds and plants. This allows us to take practical action if there is a threat to the survival of a particular species. Installing and monitoring bird and bat boxes, and managing public access are a few of the practical solutions we employ. |
| EducationRangers work with schools to encourage a greater understanding of a working country estate, conservation and wildlife. Schools can take part in a wide range of activities which make learning about the countryside an enjoyable experience. |
| RecreationRangers provide formal and informal recreation facilities throughout the Estate. This includes providing information boards and picnic benches at key sites as well as a range of waymarked walks, mountain bike trails and horse trails. Something for everyone. And of course, the Adventure Playground is not to be missed by big kids and little alike! |
| EventsThroughout the year, the Rangers organise guided walks and talks for the public to come and discover the wonders of nature for themselves. Furthermore, we host many outdoor events, for a wide range of organisations including mountain bike races, orienteering and car rallies which are all regular activities. Check our news & events or contact us for details. |
| VolunteersThe Rangers' work is never done, and even during periods when the park is quiet there is plenty going on. If you would like to lend a hand on a variety of conservation, access or wildlife focussed projects then please contact one of the Rangers. |
