That truly indefinable something'!
I realise now that I never fully appreciated what  the Broads really meant, until I started exploring by canoe;  to actually be in the environment right down on the water; to understand what it feels like to be a part of this always magical, forever changing landscape is something that came with years of paddling, stopping, brewing up, listening, looking, more paddling, perspiring and often as not freezing. The Broads landscape has a never the same twice feel because it’s weather & seasons present a different perspective every time.  So when you’ve had that ‘perfect day’ again; there will always be an indefinable something to keep you wanting to return.

Wilds of Norfolk was set up because of our unquenchable enthusiasm for the Norfolk Broads,  our small part of the natural world. We thought we'd like to try and give something back by helping other people enjoy the countryside and it's wildlife as well as do our own little bit to promote an interest in the natural world and it's conservation , not only for the wildlife but for the sheer exuberance of the precious life we're lucky enough to get the chance to live.
