Go wild on downs

Wednesday 1 June, Viewpoint Car Park, Brading Down

Come and enjoy a fascinating day out during the spring half-term holiday on the Island’s newest Local Nature Reserve at Brading Down.

Set in the Isle of Wight Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Brading Down is free for all to use, has spectacular panoramic views, and is one of the Island’s most popular sites for recreation, picnicking and wildlife watching.

The event runs from 10.30 am until 4pm, with great wildlife activities throughout the day including: art activities, wildflower and butterfly walks, bug hunts, geocaching and loads more.

This event is the Island’s third BioBlitz, you can help us record all the animals, bugs and plants you see on the day. Bring a camera and enter Brading Town Council’s photo competition!

Parking is free on Brading Down and a free hourly shuttle minibus will run from Brading Station to the viewpoint car park.
