The Lodge Nature Reserve and Gardens is a very special place, offering an exceptionally rich combination of wildlife and heritage experiences! The woodland, heath and acid grassland there cover an area of some 220 hectares, and now form the largest stretch of heathland in Bedfordshire. So why not head there and see the amazing views?
You can explore this attractive nature reserve along 8 km of trails, visit the beautifully managed gardens, the Iron Age banks and ditches on Galley Hill, or watch woodland birds from the hide! You can see a wide range of woodland species throughout the year, and spotted flycatchers and hobbies during the summer.
As if this wasn't tempting enough, they host several events throughout the year, such as mini-beast safaris! This is perfect for those feeling extra adventurous. RSPB Explorer Backpacks are available for children to use on the reserve; these contain binoculars, bug viewers, wildlife guides and activity booklets! So what are you waiting for? Head there for a memorable, fun, and educational visit now!
