On foot or by bicycle
On the lagoon side of the river, a public footpath and cycle track runs alongside the river from Colchester to Rowhedge. The surface is good, however there are three gates. These may be negotiable by some wheelchairs, but access to the hide involves a steep slope and steps.On the opposite side is a footpath and cycle track from Colchester to Wivenhoe, also accessible from Essex University via a rail crossing.
