We're going on a Wild Walk...
Explore a hidden gem of wetland habitat at WWT Martin Mere Wetland Centre this summer holiday with the opening of Wild Walk.
Work is well underway to create the new Wild Walk experience which will take visitors on a journey through three types of wetland habitat, providing a taste of the ‘wild’ reserves, which are traditionally only accessed via viewpoints in hides.
Nick Brooks, Centre Manager at WWT Martin Mere said: “Become a nature explorer at Martin Mere this summer and take an exciting journey through the muddy meadow, wet woods and reedy ramble.
“Everyone loves the sounds and energy associated with the Michael Rosen Bear Hunt story. Going on a Wild Walk at Martin Mere will create a similar memorable wetland experience.”
Visitors are encouraged to bring wellies and meander through a maze of wetland tracks, through the muddy meadow to the middle maze lodge, across the wobbly web bridge to the wet woods and along a reedy ramble, discovering the wildlife and giant sculptures.
The Wild Walk project at WWT Martin Mere Wetland Centre is funded by the Lancashire Environmental Fund, a generous legacy from the late Mrs Magdalene Thistleton, Cargill PLC, Laila’s Fine Foods Ltd and The Duchy of Lancaster Benevolent Fund.
Wild Walk is just one element of the Martin Mere summer holiday nature explorer experience. There will also be daily pond dipping sessions, the award winning canoe safari, moth morning discoveries a nature explorer passport and much more.
