Not as wild as you might think!

WWT Welney Wetland Centre makes the natural world more accessible than ever

Finding a day out that accommodates all the family’s needs doesn’t have to be a nightmare -  what if we told you there was a way to combine close-up natural encounters with gentle paths, wheelchair access, mother and baby facilities, rest and shade stops and beautiful views?

Well look no further.

WWT Welney Wetland Centre is an easy, safe place to enjoy the wonders of wetland wildlife.  Offering experiences where adults and children can explore the richness of a wetland habitat and encounter birds, insects and mammals, surrounded by stunning scenery.

Spending time near or on water is an essential day-out experience and makes for unforgettable memories – you can investigate it, gaze at it and marvel at the myriad forms of wildlife that cluster round it – water is never boring!

There is always something to see and do at our Wetland Centre, 364 days of the year, and you’ll find getting about and joining in is easy for everyone. Each season offers a totally different experience – you can choose as much or as little activity as you want. Fully accessible experiences range from pond dipping to accessible hides - and always includes close-up wildlife encounters. Throughout the year, the Wetland Centre has a programme of indoor and outdoor events which are perfect for nature lovers.

There is ample parking, comfortable hides, easy buggy and wheelchair friendly pathways, mobility scooters and wheelchairs available to use (donations welcome), fully stocked cafes (with moveable seating), gift shops and disabled and parent & baby facilities. Great facilities mean all your needs are catered for, alongside the wild and wonderful experience of being able to envelop yourself in the natural beauty of the wetland environment.
