Come and experience nature's great symphony, the dawn chorus, at College Lake Nature Reserve.
About this Event

Join our Guide for a gentle 2 hour stroll around the reserve, as we listen for different birds living amongst our varied habitats. We will wander down woodland paths, through open chalk grasslands, and get close to the reedbeds along the lake edge in search of different birdlife and their individual songs. Let’s see how many we can find!


The early morning walk would not be complete without a chance to share our experience over a lovely hot drink and pastries enjoyed in our café. Please do let us know in advance if you any dietary requirements or allergies so that we can cater for you. Please email [email protected]


Set your alarm and come and join us on a 2 hour walk experiencing natures greatest symphony!
