Good for kids
Very nice area to spend a bit of quiet time with the wife. I've often enjoyed coming here in the summer to watch the birds.

Really nice path from the hythe to wivenhoe, with good veiws along the river and far-reaching country side!!!
Beautiful place for a walk or a run
The path was renovated a few years ago, and is now nowhere near as muddy or pot holed as it once was. It takes you from Colchester's Hythe to the village of Rowhedge. The lagoons were used to store dredged mud from the river, until they stopped using the Hythe port in the 1980s and 1990s. Now they attract wildfowl, with a bird hide to allow for viewing. Cattle are sometimes released into the meadows by the local farmer, so be careful around them. Don't let your dog chase the cattle. The large earth lumps you see across the meadows are ant hills, created by colonies of a type of Yellow Meadow ant called Lasius clavus. You can also see what appears to be several meandering ditches across the meadow. These are the remains of ancient channels of the Colne, before it settled on its current course
Lovely calm walking environment
