Discover Hickling Broad: Norfolk's Largest Natural Wonder

Good Afternoon

Hickling Broad, the largest of Norfolk's Broads and managed by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, offers both natural beauty and diverse wildlife. This large Broad provides an ideal setting if you’re a nature enthusiast as well if you’re looking for peace and tranquillity. It really is a lovely Broad and definitely worth exploring.

You can enjoy boating or canoeing surrounded by reed beds that are home to various bird species, including marsh harriers and migrating waterfowl. The area also has other wildlife, such as otters and the rare swallowtail butterfly.

There are lots of footpaths and walks around the Broad along with excellent vantage points for photography, as well as birdwatching.

In the winter, Hickling Broad is an excellent bird watching site. Click here find out more about Hickling Broad.


Next week we’re into November, and that only means one thing – seals! Keep an eye out for everything you need to know about the seals in Norfolk.

Best wishes,
Suzy

P.S. By the way, there is one fabulous Norfolk cottage that sits right on the edge of Hickling Broad that you can rent for your holidays called Watersedge. Check it out via the link.
