Sorry, unfortunately it does not anymore.

Hello Clive, The nature reserve has surfaced paths and some of which are suitable for commuting by bike. However there are kissing gates at entrances and the site is not suitable for mountain biking etc. Thank you

Yes it does.

You where definitely in the wrong part, they are currently building the new houses, which can be seen through the line of trees only very close by, at the top of the car park you used, there's a little gate entrance with a totem pole, go through there and straight is a lovely trail with iron and wooden statues, it's beautiful once you're in there, you can't hear anything but birdsong.

Yes The trees are changing colour nicely.

Hi Sarah, Saltwells is well served by the bus network. As Saltwells Nature Reserve is so large which bus is best for you depends on not only where you are coming from but also which parts of the nature reserve you want to explore. Unfortunately Trip Advisor will not allow me to put in the web address here which holds the local bus network map. However if you go to Network West Midlands website then follow the following links: Bus, Maps, Bus Maps, Sandwell and Dudley and then finally you can download the Brierley Hill and Merry Hill map as a pdf Saltwells Nature Reserve's car park is not far at all from the Saltwells stop just east of Merry Hill. Merry Hill itself is a large bus interchange with many routes coming from further afield, such as Birmingham. The reserve is just a short walk from there across the busy Pedmore Road. The reserve itself stretches up to the Cinder Bank bus stop in the north and is also cut through by the route stopping at Lodge Farm. I hope this helps! Alan
