Berengrave Nature Reserve - (Near Kent, South East)

3 /5 Irina Springate: We recently came across this place as recently we always look out for some new local places where we can take our furry son for a walk. Well, to say it is small, it would say nothing. It took us around 40 min, if so, to cover the complete area. The place looked unkept & wasnt clean, re: lots of rubbish was dumped by people everywhere, which I found very upsetting. :( The lake was full of branches, which I think our Wolfdog was very happy about & tried to drug them out. So I guess he had some fun there! :) At view points, all you would see, hmm, not much... is just the crowns of the trees. :) The car park we used was designated for Motney Hill Nature Reserve & just walked from there.

5 /5 Daniel: This is a lovely little nature nature reserve that is a former chalk quarry. As you walk through you can still see the remains of the wash mills. There is a small lake at the far end that is full of wildlife. There is loads of wild flowers growing and plenty of wildlife to see. It’s a nice peaceful nature reserve that doesn’t get busy and perfect for a relaxing walk.

3 /5 Feizal Mowlabocus: I parked at the small free car park for Motney Hill Reserve. Berengrave Nature Reserve was very close by and a short walk. Perhaps it was the time of year but it was rather overgrown to the point some paths were impassable. There was a fair amount of litter and dumping evident which made it an eyesore. Some paths were quite picturesque as I primarily went to take photos. There are much better views at Motney Hill and Floors Wharf.

1 /5 Jamie Clark: It is a nice walk with different wildlife but is absolutely full of litter everywhere. Lots of plastic bottles, glass and all sorts all over the reserve. This picture was down by the lake. I filled up 2 bags worth from the benches at the top but ran out of room as there was so much.

2 /5 Lee vespa: Unfortunately there is no drainage,and the pond has flooded everywhere...also looks like kids have been climbing on a tree and snapped it in half,onto the pathway......on a plus side,was greeted by a vixen , looked in good shape....but my dog was off her lead.....being a lurcher,she gave chase.....knew the fox would evade her, walked further down,called her back......as we were walking....two fox cubs.....only about 12 weeks old,were sunbathing on the path,so put the dog on the lead and let them be, heading back the other way.........so dog walkers beware...... keep them on the lead....cubs dont need to be food for dogs.....make sure mine is on the lead,next visit....big on conservation,but the foxes arent doing damage down there....and it is a nature reserve after all....keep them safe,leash your dogs,thanks.
