ONE of Thurrock's hidden gems, the Essex Wildlife Trust's Chafford Gorges Nature Discovery Park, will be taking centre stage this weekend following the unveiling of 22 new interpretation boards that will guide visitors around the reserve.

The boards cover the 70% of the reserve that often gets missed by visitors.

There are also four trails that can be walked by scanning the QR codes on the new boards, or by following this link.

Chafford Gorges Nature Discovery Park has more than 200 acres of green space for you to explore and is one of the most varied and biodiverse nature reserves in Essex.
