Beautiful park for lovely walk! Also, great place to watch the birds.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Don't be put off by the name. 'Waterworks Centre Nature Reserve' doesn't sound very romantic, scenic or enticing, but I can assure you this is a hidden gem. You can easily access it by crossing Lea Bridge Road south of the riding school or via the footpath just north of the bridge which crosses the river Lea to Hackney marshes. It's a beautifully maintained oasis of calm. The filter beds themselves at the far end can be observed by opening up a series of hides so as not to disturb the wildlife. There are, however, quite a few areas which look very interesting but which are closed to the public because of ongoing maintenance. It would be nice to think that at some time in the future these will become accessible.
A very nice afternoon walk, with plaques containing explanations of the area and it's historical significance.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Tucked away off Lea Bridge Road, it's a lovely spot for a dog walk, outside the reserve. There's parking, at the moment, summer, it's locked at 9pm. There is a visitor centre but it's generally closed when we get there later on. If you don't have your 4-legged friend you can go in the nature reserve, locked earlier around 6.30. I volunteered for conservation work a few years ago, it's a wonderful place. From here you can walk to Hackney Marshes and the River Lea. There's a lot to explore.
I visited this place by pure chance. First on a raining day in November and then again in December. It was stunning and cannot imagine what it will look like during the sunny months. Full of history where you can learn about the environment and the local area. Such a lovely place to be. To bring children or for a quiet walk by yourself. It's not too big and easy to walk around.
Love going for a walk around waterworks. So peaceful and always on the look out for what nature, birds, bugs we can find.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Nice place for walk & cycling on weekends also good for watching if your interested
Enjoyed a lovely day here walking with my son and taking photos
An historic water-management, supply, storage and filtration compound reverted to a nature reserve. Artificial habitats expertly purposed for flora and fauna is both an outstanding and unique educational resource and peaceful sanctuary.
Lovely place for a walk in nature in the middle of a busy city.
