This serene nature reserve is a haven for wildlife and nature lovers alike, boasting a stunning lake surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant wildflowers. The tranquil atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing stroll or picnic, with several walking trails and hides offering opportunities to spot a variety of bird species, including kingfishers, herons, and dragonflies. The lake's calm waters are also home to fish, frogs, and newts, adding to the reserve's rich biodiversity.
Great birdwatching and walking area, a few lakes in one place. It's sometimes muddy after rain but wellies will help but it is worth. There is nothing better than fraternity with nature and a little rest before a week full of work. Parking, toilet and drinks shop nearby.
Just beautiful. Could have sat here all day. Rickmansworth Aquadrome is just beautiful it has a lovely cafe, toilets, kayaking something for everyone. We found this little spot tucked away. Perfect
Wow! I had the most amazing time exploring Stocker's Lake Nature Reserve and Rickmansworth Aquadrome. It was like stepping into a fairytale! Let me tell you, this place is a hidden gem! The nature reserve is so lush and green, and the winding pathways make for a delightful adventure. The best part? The stunning lake that reflects the sunny blue sky above. It's absolutely breathtaking! I couldn't believe my luck when I came across Rickmansworth Aquadrome within the reserve. The waterways there are simply mesmerizing, and the reflections are like something out of a dream. Picture-perfect! I spent some time sitting by the water, just soaking in the peaceful atmosphere and listening to the calming sounds of the waves. And let me tell you, this place is a photographer's paradise! Every corner is so picturesque, with blooming flowers and graceful swans adding to the beauty. I couldn't stop taking photos, but I have to admit, no camera can truly capture the magic of being there in person. If you're in need of a little escape from the daily grind, Stocker's Lake Nature Reserve and Rickmansworth Aquadrome are the perfect places to go. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Just remember to check the parking opening hours and any guidelines before your visit.
If you enjoy a simple walk next to a lake, the Stocker's Lake Nature Reserve is for you. From the aquadrome's parking, you have a 4 km walk where you can see birds from lot of viewpoints. The footpath is wide but can be muddy if it rains before. If you like to take pictures you will also enjoy it. I only did it in January but I will certainly come back later to spend hours to take pictures of the wildlife !
Beautiful place with a narrow and dense way next to the lake. I have been in this area a couple of times and it's so big that you can't visit all the interesting places in one go. Sprint and summer are probably the best time to enjoy this walk.
Stunning oasis of calm. A wonderful place for a walk and a haven for birders in particular.
