Running (not continuously) from Camborne to the sea at Gwithian
the Red River LNR is another fine example of natural regeneration.
As one of the most industrialised valleys during the mining period,
the Red River LNR is now a partially wooded valley, with areas
of heath and some beautiful lakes and ponds along the way.
Some
great wildlife has been spotted on the Reserve including badgers,
foxes, otters, woodpeckers and a whole array of butterflies and
insects. The plants are very special too.
The area is still regenerating
and lots of conservation work goes on to clear areas for habitat
improvements and to create better access to previously hidden
places.
