College Lake visitor centre in Buckinghamshire is an outstanding centre for wildlife that delights and informs wildlife watchers of all ages. You can take one of our walks around the lakes in the former chalk quarry and spot wetland birds, visit the beautiful traditional meadows, or have a cup of tea and a cake in the tea room.

Every year, we invite our valued supporters to special exclusive events to say thank you. Find out more information or book onto one today.

We are running a series of legacy events throughout the year where we will be taking members on a guided walk and showing you the importance of donating to BBOWT in your Will and how it can make a difference in protecting and safeguarding wildlife.
