Rewilding is a promise to the future. It’s a story of restoration and reconnection, of people engaging with the natural world. It’s an active expression of hope. This guided tour captures a moment in time: Wild Ken Hill in the early stages of its rewilding journey. So what does rewilding really mean on the ground?

During this rewilding deep dive, you’ll discover the benefits of letting Nature follow its own course and how it works in practice. Your expert guide will describe how this marginal land was managed historically and how it’s now returning to a landscape rich in wildlife. You’ll learn about naturalistic grazing and hear about Wild Ken Hill’s approach and what informed the decision to introduce Exmoor ponies, Red Poll cattle and Tamworth pigs – all already having a phenomenally positive impact on the vegetation structures. You’ll look at the scrub margins alongside hedgerows and explore their importance to birds, insects, and other wildlife, as well as their ability to carbon capture, vital to combating climate chaos. And you’ll be introduced to Norfolk’s only Beavers, discussing the tangible benefits from reintroducing this characterful creature, a native British keystone species.

Wandering through Wild Ken Hill’s precious rare habitats, winter woods, glorious woodland pastures and open heathland, you’ll develop your own understanding of these vital places and their natural cycles. Step outside, become aware of the breeze, the scurrying of small creatures, sudden birdsong, leaves falling. Here you’ll deepen your connection to Nature and take its healing power to heart.
