Our verdict
One of Britain's great wetlands and somehow still uncrowded. Flat walking, ancient history underfoot, and birdlife that makes binoculars compulsory.
The heart of the Avalon Marshes — reedbeds, fen and flooded peat workings threaded with flat tracks, hiding bitterns, otters and the 6,000-year-old Sweet Track.
National Nature Reserve at the heart of the Avalon Marshes, with open access on the old peat moors. Dogs on leads for the wetland birds.
