Four-Legged visitors

Planning to bring your dog or horse to the Solway Coast National Landscape?

They are more than welcome to come and discover this area with you and there are some great walks and rides they will love.

Please keep your dogs on the lead around livestock and near the bird feeding and nesting sites.

Dogs should be on a two-metre lead between 1 March and 31 July to protect our feathered friends.

During the breeding season, birds nest on the beach above the high water mark so please try not to disturb them as you walk or ride. They are at their most vulnerable when sitting on eggs. Stick to existing paths and tracks whenever possible, or walk below the high tide line if it’s safe to do so.
