Description
The 12 mile footpath follows an old railway line and has many hidden features waiting to be discovered. The sheltered inland Wirral Way is filled with wildlife, flowers and butterflies and is perfect for bird spotting. Search for crabs and seashells on the shore, watch for weasels, badgers and foxes in hedgerows or explore the waterfall and old oak woodland. Dramatic views of the Dee Estuary stretching towards the Welsh hills can be seen from the 60-foot high cliff tops. Visit Thurstaston Visitor Centre for talks, films and slide shows, guided walks, bike rides, mini-beast safari, pond dipping, smugglers trails and scavenger hunts.
