St Cyrus National Nature Reserve
Nature Centres & Reserves
Overview
The natural barriers of inland cliffs and a seaward ridge of sand dunes protect the St Cyrus grasslands from the ravages of the weather. In summer the Reserve is awash with colour and life, from the intense purple of the clustered bellflower to the constant movement of countless butterflies and moths. Soaring above all this, peregrine falcons circle high in the air, waiting for an opportunity to dive on their prey.
Best Time To Visit: Spring/summer for plants and breeding birds, winter for wading birds.
Facilities: Visitor centre and toilets open daily from April to October, and Monday to Friday from November to March. Excellent views from cliff top at the village end. Dogs must be kept under close control at all times and dog waste bins used.
Further Information: SNH, The Old Lifeboat Station, Nether Warburton, St Cyrus, Montrose DD10 0AQ. Tel: 01674 830736.
