Unlocking the best birdwatching sites in Lincolnshire
Lincolnshire Wolds Bird Trail
You may already have tried our coastal bird trail with its huge flocks of migrating birds. In the Lincolnshire Wolds bird watching is very different but has much to offer. Nobody knows their birding here better than the Lincolnshire Bird Club and they’ve chosen these locations together with their tips on how to make the most of your visit.
Lincolnshire Wolds bird trail locations
We have a variety of landscapes including woodland, a steep sided river valley, reservoirs, reclaimed land, a former WWII airfield and the open rolling hills of the Wolds. Charming market towns like Louth and Horncastle make great gateways to your exploring providing plenty of shops, places to eat and stay. This is good walking country and we recommend some pubs for a well-earned break. Varied landscapes will mean a good variety of birds to spot. From sand martins to bittern, peregrines to starling murmuration’s, ravens to kingfishers.
