Join us for a relaxed, family-friendly wildlife walk around NWT Hickling Broad. Guided by our young volunteer and passionate birdwatcher Toby, you’ll explore scenic trails and discover the rich variety of wildlife that makes Hickling such a special place - with a special focus on the birds that call the reserve home.
This walk is perfect for all ages and experience levels - whether you’re a keen birder, a nature enthusiast, or simply looking to enjoy some fresh air and peaceful surroundings. Toby will share his knowledge, enthusiasm, and top tips for spotting and identifying birds along the way.
