A nature reserve worth visiting while exploring the grounds at Elvaston Castle - lots of little paths making one big loop. Very peaceful!

Walkers only though - no dogs or bikes allowed in the nature reserve.

Elvaston Castle Main Gates

Highlight • Monument

These gates are chained & padlocked shut, however if you are inside trying to get out, then we found that the low wall to the side was easy to clamber over

Near the end/beginning of the trail, depending on which way you go-this is opposite a large and lovely green space-great for a picnic!
