WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre

After a complete day in the Cotswolds with ample things to do? Come to the WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre, where wildlife and special activities await.

There are entrance fees for adults, concessions and children aged between 4-16 years old to pay. However, children aged under four years old and carers assisting disabled visitors can visit for free.

WWT Slimbridge is open on a daily basis, however, the best time to come has to be Winter. During this time of year, thousands of wild birds can be spotted, including Bewick’s swans.

Throughout the year an array of bird sightings can occur, and you can see them up close at the Living Wetland Theatre and Waterscapes Aviary. Here, a 360-seat theatre and walkthrough aviary allow you to watch the birds as they soar overhead.

The Estuary Tower Hide is another great bird-watching spot.

Another way to experience the wildlife at Slimbridge WWT is by embarking on a safari. Two of these are available, including canoe safaris and wild safaris.

Alternatively, why not attend one of the daily talks or tours? A summer walkway is also available, allowing visitors with limited mobility to experience the River Severn’s wildlife up close.

Bringing the little ones? be sure to stop at the Riverlife play area, Welly Boot Land and the Arctic Adventure research spot.

WWT Slimbridge benefits from a variety of events for visitors to partake in, such as special exhibitions, nature workshops and tours of an on-site museum. Don’t forget the wildlife photography classes!

There’s so much to experience at WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre…
