Raring2go! Chorley & Leyland

3 Raring2go! raring2go .co.uk Raring2go! WHERE TO GO 2 Autumn is a fantastic time of year to visit WWT Martin Mere Wetland Centre. Get your coats on and get outdoors in the fresh air to witness the spectacle of the autumn migration. In a feast for your senses, hear the familiar sound of thousands of pink-footed geese honking overhead as up to 30,000 geese will spend October at the centre using the mere as a safe haven to spend the night. Imagine seeing thousands of geese whiffling over the mere as they fall to the water with a scenic sunset background. The centre hosts late evenings every Wednesday and Saturday in October to come and witness the spectacle for yourself. As the geese move on with their migration, we will see the return of the whooper swans from Iceland to spend the winter with us to make a winter wildlife wonderland. As the leaves turn red and orange a new event starts ‘What lurks beneath’. Throughout all of October follow a trail to learn spooky facts about some of our wetland species – and take Martin Mere Wetland Centre on challenges as you go around the grounds. The canoe safari and boat tours will also close at the end of October (open weekends and half term) along with pond dipping activities, being replaced by carving pumpkins and making scary creatures in the craft room. An amazing wetland adventure is waiting for you.
