The Dawn Chorus is one of the UK’s best wildlife spectacles - so why not join us to immerse in Arne’s own Dawn birdsong orchestra! It is an event not to be missed, as we take you through the woodland to identify and learn the calls of our resident and migrant songbirds.
Get an exclusive opportunity to see Arne in the early hours, immerse in the still, calm serenity of the woods, and hear the different bird song as they begin to set up breeding territories, and defend these against competing birds. The walk will start at 5am by the Welcome Hut.
Please note: This event may be cancelled at short notice if adverse weather conditions are forecast. Reserve facilities will be closed, so please bring your own refreshments and optics as you wish.
