Britain's What's On Event Guide
Nature Spotting: Berries, Nuts & Autumn Leaves
Discover autumn at Attenborough Nature Reserve! Spot and identify fallen leaves, berries and nuts on a guided seasonal nature walk for all.
About the event
Join our friendly volunteer guides for a gentle autumn wander around Attenborough Nature Reserve. Together, we’ll explore the colours and textures of the season — from golden leaves underfoot to hedgerows alive with berries and nuts. This guided walk is perfect for beginners as well as those with more experience, with plenty of chances to share knowledge and spot wildlife signs together.
Whether you’re curious about identifying tree species by their leaves, learning which berries are loved by birds, or just enjoying the crisp air and autumn scenery, this walk will give you a deeper appreciation for the changes happening in nature at this time of year.
Nature Spotting events are a monthly volunteer-led informal and friendly walk, where you can meet like-minded people. None of us are experts, but we share our knowledge and love for nature. Each month is a different theme.
The walk starts and ends outside our Nature Centre, which has a café, shop, toilet and baby changing facilities and our accessible Nature Garden with Sand Martin bird hide.
The walk starts at 10am, so arrive by 9.45am to get parked and use the facilities if required. We aim to be back at the Nature Centre by 11.15am and you are welcome to join us for a drink in the café together afterwards.
Please visit our website to book your place. Spaces are limited, so please let us know if you can't make it as we will likely have a waiting list.
Please note that whilst the walk itself is not charged, parking fees apply. This is waived for NWT members, Attenborough volunteers and staff who have previously registered their vehicles. For more information see our parking page.
