Nature Excursion: Exploring the Wildlife Habitat
Guided Walk at Lackford Lakes: Discover the Wildlife Haven
Get ready for an exciting wildlife adventure at Lackford Lakes, a beautiful nature reserve in Suffolk! On Saturday, 25 October 2025, join the Suffolk Wildlife Trust's Welcome Day and embark on a guided walk led by knowledgeable guides or wardens.
This event offers a unique opportunity to explore the diverse habitats and species that call Lackford Lakes home. You might catch a glimpse of kingfishers, lapwings, or warblers, as reported in previous guided walk reports. Engage with Suffolk Wildlife Trust staff and volunteers who will share insights into conservation work and the local environment.
To attend, booking is essential. The cost is £5 per person, which is refundable if you become a member on the day; it's free for existing members. Booking details can be found on the Suffolk Wildlife Trust's website.
When you arrive, head to the meeting point at pencils.reckons.complies. Remember to wear appropriate outdoor clothing, as the trails may become more challenging following poor weather. Binoculars are recommended to enhance your wildlife viewing experience, and they can be hired on-site.
Dogs are welcome on some trails, but they must be kept on leads to protect the wildlife. Unfortunately, they are not allowed in the visitor center, blue Trail near the lakes, or hides.
During your visit, you can also enjoy the amenities at the visitor center, including a café offering drinks and snacks with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options.
We look forward to welcoming you to Lackford Lakes for a day filled with wildlife, learning, and fun! For further information, please visit www.our website/eventinfo or contact Lackford Lakes center at the provided contact number.
