Visiting Wicken Fen: Plan your visit

To help keep visitors, staff, volunteers and local communities safe, we've made some changes, so your visit will be a bit different to what you're used to. Read this article to find out what to expect from your visit.

Sedge Fen

The routes on the Sedge Fen are all open. The Boardwalk and Woodland Walk are accessible for wheelchairs and pushchairs. The longer Summer Nature Trail takes you round the edge of Sedge Fen. You don’t need to book but please help to keep everyone safe by giving other people space. Our bird hides are open; we are recommending you wear a face covering inside, as well as other indoor spaces.

Explore the wider reserve

Routes into the wider reserve are open for you to enjoy with plenty of space for exercise, nature and wildlife. This part of the reserve is drained land but brought back into conservation. Our grazing herds move through it, so keep an eye out for them. All routes can be accessed from the car park (exit left and follow Lode Lane) which is open between 9:00am and 5:00pm. Parking is free for members, £3 for non-members, please use the pay and display machine to obtain your ticket.
