Detailed trail guides are on sale in the Visitor Centre

The Boardwalk is 3/4 mile in length, and is accessible all year round.
No special footwear is needed.
The Boardwalk is ideal for wheelchairs and pushchairs.
A specially adapted hide is easily reached, and suitable for use by all.
Benches are provided at regular intervals all around the walk.

The Nature Trail and Adventurers' Trail are for the more adventurous. These take the visitor through over two miles of the Reserve, passing through many different habitats and management areas.
In wet weather these trails can be quite muddy.
The Nature Trail includes the Tower Hide, one of the oldest hides in the country.
Parts of the Nature Trail can be hard walking in hot or wet weather - please telephone or enquire at the Visitor Centre if you are at all unsure and we will happily advise you on the most suitable route to take.

Hot weather
There is little shade on the Fen so on hot days a hat and suncream may be useful.
The Fen can also be humid and hot still days and therefore a supply of drinking water can be useful.

Mosquitoes
The Fens are famous for their mosquitoes, and as Wicken is justly renowned for its insect life visitors are recommended to use a mosquito repellent during summer months.
