We are moving into Tier 3 at 00:01 on Boxing Day, so here's a quick summary of what will be available at RSPB Ham Wall:
Car park open (5 am-6:30 pm). Car park machine card payment only, members park free.
Outdoor, Covid-secure, staffed Welcome Point (Fri-Mon, 10 am- 4 p.m)
Reserve trails open (Dawn until Dusk)
Toilets open (5 am-6:30 pm)
Take away refreshments available to purchase, (10 am - 4 pm. Weekends and during the week when we have a volunteer) card payment only.
Picnic Area Closed
Hides closed
We will be closing the hides at 4 pm on 24th December.
While the reserve and car park will be open throughout the festive period. The toilets, refreshments and welcome point will be closed on the following days:
• 24 December – Christmas Eve
• 25 December – Christmas Day
• 26 December – Boxing Day
When visiting us please follow all current Government guidance around social distancing, maximum group sizes, hygiene and follow all signage on-site.
Please also follow Government guidance on travel both within Tier 3 and between tiers.
We ask that all visitors, except those who are exempt from doing so, please wear a face-covering while in our toilets
Due to Covid-19, we are unfortunately still asking visitors to find an alternative local starling roost to visit in the evenings where possible due to government advice on maximum gathering sizes and social distancing. For the safety of everyone, please visit starlingsintheuk.co.uk to find your nearest alternative roost site. If you’re thinking of visiting the Avalon Marshes for starlings this year and it is your local site, please plan your visit carefully and read our latest guidelines here before arriving :

Greylake and Swell Wood hides will also be closed while we are in Tier 3. The car parks and trails are open as usual
