Join in this celebration of the amazing salmon and Exe river. Take part as a runner or help out as a steward; Be part of the celebration and learn more about this remarkable species which is an integral part of river and ocean ecology and culture. Atlantic Salmon numbers are are down by 75% since the 70s and salmon are now critically endangered and potentially set to disappear from the Exe. The salmon, as a keystone species, is a representative for the diversity in the river catchment. The salmon faces many serious challenges, mostly man-made and many exacerbated by climate change. Tidelines works with Westcountry Rivers Trust to improve the river habitat to help give salmon a fighting chance. In Salmon Run we bring this extraordinary species to light, highlight their incredible life cycle and migration and show our love for the river and our community! Run wild with the Salmon!
