Wild Weekend

Holkham National Nature Reserve, almost 10,000 acres of richly diverse habitats, and home to a unique range of flora and fauna, will be hosting its inaugural Wild Weekend. Focussing on the specialist species, changing habitats and amazing breeding successes of the North Norfolk coast, this event will be a chance for the whole family to engage with the wild, learn from conservation and wildlife specialists and explore the reserve at first-hand.

Magnificent Moths
Monday 25th, Tuesday 26th and Wednesday 27th May

Help us identify some of the magnificent moths that have been attracted, in the dead of night, to our moth traps. Find out where they hide up during the day and marvel at their spectacular larvae.

Dazzling Dragonflies

Learn about the amazing lifecycle of dragonflies and be amazed at their carnivorous ferocity, deep in the depths of your local pond.

Brilliant Bees
