About this property
Wicken Fen is one of Europe's most important wetland sites, supporting an amazing abundance of wildlife. There are more than 1,000 species of moth and butterfly, more than 200 species of birds and a spectacular array of dragonflies. The raised boardwalk and lush grass droves allow easy access to a lost landscape of flowering meadows, sedge and reedbeds, where you can encounter rarities such as hen harriers, water voles and bitterns. The Wicken Fen Vision, an ambitious landscape-scale conservation project, is opening up new areas of land to explore. Our grazing herds of Highland cattle and Konik ponies are helping to create a diverse range of new habitats for wildlife and visitors to enjoy.
