Cumbria Wildlife Trust – Smardale Tour

One of many virtual tours of Cumbria Wildlife Trust nature reserves on which I have now collaborated. An excellent way of exploring and interacting with a reserve. This can prepare you for visiting in person or replace the experience if it is not possible for you to visit. You can choose what order you wish to explore the points of interest. I get tremendous enjoyment from putting these tours together.

Creating this 360° tour was a huge but very worthwhile challenge. For starters it involved a lot of walking on the day and careful battery management to allow me to use the drone at six locations to capture the aerial 360° views. However, the weather on the August day I chose to visit was fantastic, and there was so much nature to enjoy all along the reserve, that the whole experience was a pleasure.

Editing so many 360 photos and finding the clearest way of presenting all the views and information was a tricky proposition but I hope the way the sections have been arranged help the navigation make sense. Please open the tour in full screen mode to enjoy the best views of the reserve.
