RSPB Minsmere Nature Reserve

Get closer to nature at RSPB Minsmere. There are several miles of trails through Suffolk’s gorgeous coastal and wetland scenery, bringing you close to a wide variety of wildlife. Families and youth groups can explore the Wild Zone and Wild Wood Adventure, discovering more about how some of Minsmere’s special wildlife lives whilst having fun. Each season brings its own delights and sensory experiences. The woods and reedbeds resound with birdsong in spring. Still summer days see darting dragonflies and flitting butterflies take centre stage. Autumn brings a blaze of colour and prehistoric bellows of rutting red deer stags. Winter sees flocks of ducks at their glorious best set off by golden reedbeds and vast Suffolk skies. Meet our volunteer guides who will help you to discover more, or simply explore the beautiful landscape. Join us for a guided walk, or our popular family activities, then relax with locally sourced, homemade hot and cold meals in the cafe and choose from a superb range in the RSPB Shop. Fully accessible toilets and car park. Mobility scooters available to hire by calling 01728 648281 or email minsmere@rspb.org.uk (Coming Winter 2022 a new accessible trail to the newly extended East Hide)
