Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve is the most prestigious area of biodiversity management in the Borough. The reserve is a beautiful area of ancient gill woodland, maritime cliff and slope, cliff top grassland and mixed heather, lowland meadow and sustainably managed farmland, all sitting with the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Some of the most stunning views of the south east coast can be experienced from the cliff tops. On clear days there are spectacular views overlooking the coastline from Beachy Head to Dungeness and as far afield as Folkestone and the coast of France. The cliffs are rich in fossils and have yielded many specimens of dinosaur, pterosaurs, turtles crocodiles and plesiosaurs. The site is one of only a handful in the world to have produced early mammal fossils.Our lunch stop will be at the new visitor centre for Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve, 'The Bale House'.

    The unique building has been built from a range of sustainable materials such as straw bales.On our way back we will be able to see a small herd of Exmoor ponies and a new herd of Belted Galloway cattle to manage glens and slopes .
