Here are the details of our planned outdoor trips. For general information on outdoor trips please visit the outdoor trips page.
On the outskirts of Rickmansworth, the River Colne runs through mature gravel pits and defunct watercress beds. Established willows and alders alongside a canal create a diverse habitat for waterfowl including Goosander and Smew and we might see Bearded Tits and Bittern Facilities: Café and toilets.. Cost £3.00 https://www.hertswildlifetrust.org.uk/nature-reserves/stockers-lake With more hides than anywhere else that we visit and a variety of lagoons hosting waterfowl and waders, we never fail to have a good count of birds even though it will be one of the shortest days of the year Facilities: Visitor Centre sells hot drinks. Toilets. Cost £3.00 (plus £4.00 if not a member of Rutland Water - cards will be required on the day)
