Fiskerton Fen Nature Reserve — Attraction in West Lindsey

Small nature reserve that is doing wonders at re-establishing and preserving wetland habitats. There's a hide for birdwatchers overlooking a small lake and a footpath link to the banks of the River Witham. Plenty of birds and insect species to see alongside a variety of fauna & flora. Peaceful once you've got away from the road.

Be very careful going in and out of the small car park - the road is populated with an above average density of idiots that speed along the narrow road oblivious to everything outside their cockpit.

Great little nature reserve about 10 mins from Lincoln city. It's quite small, the car park is not in a great way and floods easily, There is also a height barrier.

The lake is often filled with a wide variety of birds to watch and photograph. If you go to the left and walk the main path you will end up at the river in about 20 mins, where there is a Jetty and a bridge. Again lots of wildlife in this area, a barn owl likes to visit this spot regularly. When I went last there was only one other person there. I saw deer, barn owl, a mumeration, swans and other birds. Great quiet spot for photographers and...

Very small nature reserve but always something to see and a view of the river - spoilt on this occasion by selfish dog-walkers who hadn't cleaned up after their pets - perhaps it's time to ban dog walking on nature reserves and allow other visitors more chance to see...
