Management Plan

The Forest of Bowland AONB Management Plan describes the special qualities of the area which contribute to the national significance of the landscape. It identifies the major trends and opportunities for the area and presents a vision for the Forest of Bowland AONB in 2014, the 50th Anniversary of its formal designation.

The document provides a policy framework and identifies a 5-year programme of actions (April 2004 - March 2009) to help guide the work of the AONB partnership organisations towards achieving the purpose of this plan - to conserve and enhance the natural and cultural beauty of the Forest of Bowland landscape.

The management plan is currently being reviewed. Click here for more details and to register your interest.

Walk of the Month:

Bluebell Woodland

| Bluebell Woods

A wonderful time of year to see the bluebells in Bowland! Why not do this short walk starting from Calder Vale - on Sundays in May the ladies of Calder Vale run ‘bluebell teas’: homemade refreshments are available in the village hall, in aid of the church mission hall.
