Sunrise Guided Walk at RSPB Arne
Sunday, 24 May 2026
04:15 to 06:15
Type: Animals and Conservation
Booking Required: Yes
Immerse yourself in the peace and quiet of beautiful RSPB Arne, while watching the breath-taking spectacle of sunrise over Poole Harbour.
The walk will start at 6:00am and will slowly wind its way through the nature reserve, via pockets of ancient woodland and heathland to the shoreline, in time for sunrise.
Our guides will lead you on a gentle stroll through the reserve, stopping often to simply awaken your senses to the sounds, sights and smells around you.
Allow yourself time to step away from your busy life to ‘un-plug’ and enjoy time re-connecting with nature. Hear birds singing in the dawn, maybe catch a glimpse of the deer as they move silently through the undergrowth and experience the calming tranquillity of the reserve as it changes through the seasons.
RSPB Arne is a stunning nature reserve on the banks of Poole Harbour and offers miles of trails through woodland, across open heathland and along a stretch of shoreline with its views across the harbour Islands.
Booking is essential – please see the links for more information and to book tickets.
Binoculars are available to hire on the day, for the duration of the event – please ask the event leader.
