Location

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.
