Tickets for Walk on the Wild Side 2026 will be available from Friday 3 July. More information will be announced soon.
Why take part?
For 100 years, Norfolk Wildlife Trust has been caring for Norfolk's wildlife and wild places.
From the purchase of Cley Marshes in 1926 to managing more than 60 nature reserves today, we've spent a century helping nature recover and inspiring people to connect with the natural world. But there's still so much more to do.
Nature faces huge challenges, and the support of people like you helps us continue creating a Wilder Norfolk for all.
By taking part in Walk on the Wild Side, you'll be helping to fund conservation work, protect wildlife habitats and inspire future generations to care for nature.
