Discover Rye Harbour Poetry Trail

This poetry trail is an audio trail. There are 13 poems at different locations around Rye Harbour Nature Reserve. Hold your mobile phone over the QR code at each location on the map to hear the poem recited by its author.

These poems have all been written by members of the Rye Harbour Writers who meet monthly to walk around the nature reserve and be inspired by the land and seascapes, big skies, wild habitats and unique wildlife. Many thanks to the group for sharing their wonderful poems.
