Ouse Washes |
Wide open fens have a magic of their own: the Ouse Washes cut across them with a long, straight stretch of wetland between artificial channels. Tens of thousands of ducks are attracted to this remote location in winter, as well as the largest concentration of Bewick's and whooper swans anywhere in the UK. Opening timesThe birdwatching hides are open at all times. The visitor centre is open from 9 am to 5 pm every day except Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Entrance chargesFree, but donations to help us continue our work here are welcome. Fens through a LensYou can take part in our photography competition, Fens through a Lens.
