    Walks in the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve

    For a bit of fresh air, gentle walking and historic fortifications from the 16th, 19th and 20th century. You'll find a good network of footpaths which begin at Rye Town , Winchelsea Beach and Rye Harbour. There are 3 circular walks from Rye Harbour which take between one and three hours. The reserve is a protected home for fauna and flora and a good spot to do some birdwatching (Redshank, Ringed Plover, Lapwing and Oystercatcher). On your trip, you can also visit Camber Castle. Developed by Henry VIII as part of his extensive fortifications against the French, the castle now lies two miles inland providing a peaceful home for some specialised flowers. On the walls, you'll see Wall Pennywort, Wall Germander, Wall Pepper and Pellitory of the Wall. For more information on routes, pick up a leaflet from the Rye Tourist Information Centre.
