    Arne RSPB is a beautiful location for a countryside walk. The visitor centre is newly refurbished and perfectly accessible for a wheelchair user. Accessible and clean toilet available but no Changing Rooms facility unfortunately. There is the option for Blue Badge Holders to drive further into the woods to a small accessible parking area. This gives access to the accessible walking route. This route claims to be wheelchair accessible I believe. In my opinion, this route requires the use of a powered wheelchair, ideally an all-terrain chair. The terrain is as you would expect to be in the woods, so may not be comfortable for those who do not like a bumpy road! I would not be confident that a pure manual wheelchair would be easy to use on this route unfortunately. It is not possible to access the beach by wheelchair unless you have a specialist wheelchair for this terrain. For those who are able to walk and are looking for a shorter route, this is perfect! A beautiful location.
