Spurn Winter Wander
Spurn National Nature Reserve,
Spurn Head, south of KilnseaHU12 0UH, Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, HU12 0UH
About the event
Due to multiple storms and high tides which have, for the forseeable future, made the beach inaccessible for our Unimog. We have created a replacement two hour guided walk onto the beach ( locally known as the washover)
Highlights of the Walk
Military History: Discover the fascinating remnants of Spurn's wartime past, including its role in defending the nation.
Coastal Erosion: Learn about the forces shaping this unique landscape and the challenges they present.
Warren Cottage: Delve into the history of this iconic landmark and its ties to Spurn’s past.
Nature & Conservation: Explore the washover and uncover the vital work of the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, from protecting rare wildlife to preserving Spurn's delicate ecosystem.
History of Spurn Point: Journey through time and understand what makes this ever-changing spit of land so special.
Shoreline Search: Stepping onto the sands and shingles of the washover, we'll discover what the last high tide has left for us to find, and play a game of beach bingo.
Led by a qualified guide passionate about Spurn’s unique story, this walk is perfect for history buffs, nature lovers, and curious explorers alike.
