Ynys-hir mixes Welsh oak woodland with wet grassland and salt marshes. In the spring, the ground is carpeted in flowers, and birdsong fills the air. Summer brings wading birds, such as lapwings and redshanks and some very special butterflies, too. Then in the colder months, ducks and geese move in. Feast your eyes from any of our seven hides - look out for birds of prey. We have a visitor centre with hot drinks and light snacks available, plus a picnic area with views of pools. Open all year except Christmas period.
