There is a circlar circuit leading to the broad viewing platform and then returning to the origin. The journey is not long but it is very pretty. We had a very sunny day which made the visit so much better. There are many spaces where there is no safety railing and a young or older person could stumble a fall into the marsh. Caution should be exercised.

A beautiful boardwalk with viewing area of Barton Broad. We saw a woodpecker, beautiful butterflies andnof course terns and grebes. Very accessible for wheelchairs.

A lovely accessible boardwalk which loops and extends to a viewing platform. There a some benches along the way for a rest as well as some information boards with pictures & also signs in braille. No dogs allowed on the walk other than service / guide dogs and they must be kept on a lead. Perfect sights for birdwatchers & nature photographers

Disabled car park is right next to the boardwalk, other car park is further along and requires a walk around a field and along a quiet road to get to the boardwalk. Parking is free. Nice circular route and a short walk with a lovely view point

Stumbled up this little gem. The car park is in need of clearer signage. The boardwalk itself is lovely. My first time seeing kingfishers and otters. We ended up coming back here several times over our holiday.

Lovely and peaceful, however difficult to get to especially with children as the car park is only for those with a disabled badge

It's a nice part of the world. The car park is not well signposted so in the village go slowly and you will see it OK. I ended up in the disabled park and had to retrace my steps back to the main park. The walk and the boardwalk is really nice but rather short so it's great if you want a nice walk before lunch. The view from the platform overlooking Barton Broad is very nice but not the best for birdwatching, it's more a place to watch the boats going past. Toilets in the CP are very well maintained.

A delightful boardwalk, took us around 45 minutes from the car park to complete including a stop off at the viewing gallery to see what birds we could spot. Saw plenty of wildlife on the boardwalk itself so was definitely worth the visit!

An interesting wildlife area of the broads with a circular boardwalk so ideal for all. We took children aged 3 and 5 who were fascinated to search for bugs in the foliage and all types of water loving birds on the broad. There is a car park with toilets a 10 minute walk from the site itself but you do have to use a short stretch of single track road. An educational and pleasant way to spend a couple of hours.
