Explorers: river dipping at Eastergate

Join the Riverfly Survey Team and discover some of the tiny creatures that live in our streams and rivers.

Meet our Riverfly surveying team at Eastergate Bridge (approx. 45min minute walk from Marsden) to learn about the minibeasts living in our streams. 

Bring your wellies if you would like to have a paddle and a picnic, if you wish. You will need to park at the main car park in Marsden (https://w3w.co/ambushes.caused.jelly) and walk down to Eastergate Bridge (https://w3w.co/revision.imperious.chip).

Follow the red waymarker arrows or pick up a map from our info room. This is a 3 mile round trip but it is a steady walk with no steep ascents.

Please note:

  • Meet at Eastergate Bridge (https://w3w.co/revision.imperious.chip).
  • Pack a picnic and bring your wellies.
  • The canal towpath is flat and accessible for most. There are some sections of uneven ground.
  • Children accompanied by adults are welcome at this event.
