Late Night Openings

Dates: 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22, 25, 29 October plus 1 November.

Witness the spectacle of thousands of pink-footed geese coming in to roost at Martin Mere.

Every Wednesday and Saturday in October, the Discovery Hide and nature trail will be open until 19:00 to give you the opportunity to see pink-footed geese whiffle over the mere as the autumn sun is setting.

It is free to enter the nature trail after 17:30 to watch this. Please note that there will be no access to the living collection. Please enter the nature trail via the gate near the play area as the admissions desk will be closed. There will be signs to guide you.

If you require a quiet area to watch the geese, please speak to a member of staff on arrival. We would recommend the Hale Hide as a hide that has been designated as a quiet hide for these events.
