Accessibility
Limited mobility needn’t mean missing out on nature. We are working hard to make our reserves more accessible for everyone. Here, you’ll find the reserves we recommend for those with limited mobility or pushchairs.
Fully accessible reserves
Good all-weather wheelchair access is available at four major visitor sites listed below. Whisby Nature Park, Gibraltar Point and Far Ings also have accessible Visitor Centres and disabled toilet facilities.
Electric scooters are available for hire at Whisby Nature Park for a small charge. Advance booking is advised during busy periods and weekends. For details, please contact the Natural World Centre on 01522 688868.
Other accessible sites
Some of our smaller reserves have accessible areas or viewing points, and sites with limited entry (such as stiles or locked gates) may be accessed by contacting the warden before your journey.
Click on each reserve below for more information.
Viewing points
There are also nature reserves at which good views can be had from car parks or verges. These include Willow Tree Fen, Red Hill, Gibraltar Point, Deeping Lakes, Fairfield Pit and Kirkby Gravel Pits.
If in doubt about visiting any reserve please check first.
