Maldon Wick Nature Reserve

UK Wildlife Trusts

A visit during spring and summer will greet you will wonderful views of fluttering butterflies as this reserve is well recognised for its number of butterflies! Over 28 species have been recorded within the nature reserve, including regular sightings of uncommon butterflies such as Purple, Green and White-letter Hairstreak. On warm summer nights the old railway becomes lit up as there are good numbers of Glow worms and during spring listen out for the soft 'flutey' song of the Blackcap.
