The experience
About this day out
Thelnetham Fen is a beautiful remnant of the wetland landscape that once swept along the Little Ouse valley, covering 9 hectares (20 water-filled acres). A circular walk of about 1 mile takes in the saw sedge and black bog rush of Middle Fen, the wet woodland of Old Fen and a section of the reed-fringed river. In spring and summer the reserve bursts into life with wildflower displays including the rare grass-of-Parnassus, and its reed bed provides nesting habitat for warblers and reed buntings.
