Hickling Broad is the largest of the lakes that make up the Norfolk Broads. It covers more than 140 hectares and is surrounded by extensive areas of reed bed and grazing marsh.

The Norfolk Wildlife Trust own and maintain the broad as a National Nature Reserve. Visitors can take water trail boat trips aboard a replica reed lighter, a traditional broads boat used for carrying cut reeds. It is one of the best places in the country to see Britain's largest butterfly, the swallowtail.

Birdwatchers share the broad with anglers, river cruisers and sailing enthusiasts.
