You don’t have to go far to leave the city behind for a day and get some fresh air in your lungs. Visit this peaceful paradise for wetland birds on the outskirts of the capital, where you can spot waders, wildfowl, warblers and owls. Our comfortable hides offer up-close views of the wildlife, even without binoculars. From an abundance of dragonflies and butterflies in spring and summer; to large flocks of ducks in winter; there's always a nature spectacle to experience.

Most of the paths and boardwalks are suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs, so you can explore all year round. The Thames riverside paths give lovely views across the Thames - where you will see birds, boats and all kinds of wildlife. These paths are great for jogging, cycling and walking your dog too.
