WWT Slimbridge

WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre is one of the UK's most celebrated wildlife destinations, located in Gloucestershire and operated by the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust. The birthplace of the WWT, Slimbridge is renowned for its five species of flamingos, playful otters, dragonflies, and diverse wetland birdlife. Visitors can explore the Scott House Museum, Wetland Theatre and Aviary, Summer Walkway, and adventure play areas complete with a zipline, as well as joining canoe safaris, pond dipping sessions, and expert-guided talks. The Meet the Flamingos encounter is a highlight for all ages, and yoga sessions and wildlife photography opportunities appeal to adult visitors. Overnight accommodation at Bewick's Lodge and Warblers' Meadow allows guests to experience the wetland at dawn and dusk, while the Dragonfly Festival and year-round events keep the programme fresh throughout the seasons.
