Burnham Beeches & SC

We're open! 🌳 Following a full safety inspection, Burnham Beeches has now reopened to visitors. Thank you for your patience and understanding over the past few days. We're excited to welcome you back to enjoy the beauty of the reserve. Stay safe and have a great visit!

Burnham Beeches closure update: High winds are expected to continue into Sunday, so the reserve will stay closed over the weekend unless forecasts change. Our Ranger Team will inspect paths and boundaries Monday morning. The reserve will reopen once it's safe.

🚨 Site closure notice 🚨

Due to high winds, and for the safety of our visitors, Burnham Beeches will be closed from 11am today. Please avoid visiting the reserve during this time; check back for updates before planning your visit. Stay safe and thank you for your understanding.

In autumn, most of our summer visitors (such as the blackcap) leave our shores for warmer climates. This year has been been particularly hard for #migratorybirds due to #decreasinginsectnumbers which are a vital food source for many birds.

#WorldMigratoryBirdDay

This autumn please enjoy fungi responsibly. Watch where you step (you could be trampling something) and remember foraging is strictly prohibited at Burnham Beeches and Stoke Common.
